Working in with the GIS team to confirm plant bed mapping in the Australian garden.

Instructed numerous classes with 2 to 200 students in partner swing, lindy hop, and blues dancing. Provided individualized instruction. Developed and implemented curriculum. Taught at international events.

Participated in research to determine potentially suitable habitat for 7 rare vascular plant species in the proposed Gold Butte National Conservation Area. Identified 250+ native and invasive plant species. Spend 5 days at a time camping in primitive backcountry conditions; collecting data in extreme desert conditions. Recorded vegetative survey data in field notebooks and GPS-enabled PDA devices. Helped develop measurement techniques and theories about species differentiation in the Genus… Show more Participated in research to determine potentially suitable habitat for 7 rare vascular plant species in the proposed Gold Butte National Conservation Area.

Designed and installed interior plant-scapes for public spaces within six corporate office buildings. On a monthly basis, generated large-scale orders for wholesale plants and materials, arranged deliveries, coordinated installation teams, and managed 7 staff members during plant installations. Maintained a wide variety of plant species, keeping in mind specific environmental conditions to optimize plant lifespan. Successfully prioritized diverse and time-sensitive responsibilities in a… Show more Designed and installed interior plant-scapes for public spaces within six corporate office buildings.

Gathered experimental data on a weekly basis about succulents to evaluate how saturation with salt and fresh water would affect propagation. The goal was to determine the viability of oceanic plant migration. Researched and compiled data on native uses of New Zealand Plants by the Maori people for educational programming. Completed a literature review about micro-speciation events throughout the plant kingdom. Potted, watered, rooted cuttings, and conducted general maintenance of the… Show more Gathered experimental data on a weekly basis about succulents to evaluate how saturation with salt and fresh water would affect propagation.
