He hails from St. Louis, Missouri originally, but is pursuing a B.A. in Ecosystem Science and Policy and International Studies from the <a href="http://www.miami.edu/">University of Miami</a> (FL). He is in D.C. until May via The Washington Semester’s <a href="http://www.washingtonsemester.com/programs/IED/WSP_IED.htm">International Environment and Development Program</a> at American University. <br /><br />His experience includes a stint working for a plaintiff firm in St. Louis where he performed environmental toxicology and medical research. He also investigated the hydrocarbon plume that sits under Hartford in Madison County, IL.
