I am an entomologist by training with a B.S. in Biology from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania, a M.S. and a Ph.D. in Entomology from The Ohio State University. I have taught biology classes at Ohio Northern University and The Ohio State University. For the past 25 years, I have worked for Ohio State University Extension in a number of different positions dealing with agriculture, horticulture and landscape IPM. I have taught people of all ages preschoolers to senior citizens, farmers, homeowners, Master Gardener Volunteers, Ohio Certified Volunteer Naturalists, green industry professionals and many more. In addition to entomology, I also have a great interest in botany and mycology.
