Recently unemployed, I have been using my newly discovered free time to reexamine my professional interests and to pursue my love of making crafts. I am currently looking into the possibility of going back to school in order to get my Master's in Environmental Science and Resource management. I received a B.A. in International Studies from Manhattan College and an A. S. in Biology from SUNY Orange. There is nothing I hate more in politics than partisanship. In the name of full disclosure, though I am politically an Independent, I interned with the William J. Clinton Foundation on their Climate Change Initiative in Harlem. At the end of the day, I lean a little left.
