Hi! I’m Carter — a marine science master’s student with a background in marine and environmental science, chemistry, and hands-on field research. I’m currently conducting a thesis project on nekton communities (small fish and crustaceans) in California’s salt marshes, using methods like seining, minnow trapping, and underwater videos. Before grad school, I earned my B.S. in Environmental Science with a minor in Chemistry.
I’ve worked in both research and outreach settings and love helping...
Hi! I’m Carter — a marine science master’s student with a background in marine and environmental science, chemistry, and hands-on field research. I’m currently conducting a thesis project on nekton communities (small fish and crustaceans) in California’s salt marshes, using methods like seining, minnow trapping, and underwater videos. Before grad school, I earned my B.S. in Environmental Science with a minor in Chemistry.
I’ve worked in both research and outreach settings and love helping people understand science in a way that feels approachable, not intimidating. I’ve taught peers, worked with volunteers during fieldwork, and presented to community groups — so I’m comfortable explaining complex ideas clearly and patiently. Whether it’s helping with high school biology, environmental science coursework, or writing support for science assignments, I tailor each session to the student’s needs and pace.
If you’re looking for someone who knows the science and knows how to teach it without making it boring or stressful, I’ve got you.
