I constantly used a Missouri and Arkansas gazetteer to locate driving routs and streams when GPS wasn't available. Currently I work in the office finding scanning and digitizing past papers that are pertinent to crayfish and other aquatic species. I worked with the data that we collected over the summer, entering it into Microsoft Excel and then into Microsoft Access. I try to maintain and high quality work environment through my attitude, comradery and work ethic. Show less

While working for Tim Reinbott at Bradford Research and Extension Center I assisted in spring and fall burns for quail habitat and performed quail call-count surveys I also cleared brush and unwanted trees with chainsaw and planted native trees and shrubs for wildlife. As well as having a hand in wildlife management at Bradford, I hauled food waste from the University of Missouri’s Campus Dining to Bradford Farm for compost. On occasion I had the chance to assist in the aquaculture projects… Show more While working for Tim Reinbott at Bradford Research and Extension Center I assisted in spring and fall burns for quail habitat and performed quail call-count surveys I also cleared brush and unwanted trees with chainsaw and planted native trees and shrubs for wildlife.

On occasion I had the chance to assist in the aquaculture projects at Bradford by feeding and monitoring freshwater shrimp, catfish, and bluegill in small impoundments. Show less

I would work in the Survey shop opening letters to the Department that had information regarding hunter harvest or animal sightings in the bow hunter observation surveys. I would take the information, sort it into piles or take already sorted mail and enter the information into the MDC database for further use by the resource scientists. I drove to Jeff City on a few occasions to pick up mail and other shipments of envelopes and boxes.
