Biography

I am Karen Hogan’s husband of forty-two years, a dad to our daughter Kyle and our son Rye. I’m a geoscientist, a researcher, personal trainer for brains (teacher), and mentor. I am also an amateur birder and belong to the Ozark Rivers Audubon Chapter, faculty advisor to the Missouri S&T Mynah Birds (student organization), and join in with the Otter Creek Audubon Chapter in Middlebury Vermont when I can. I’m a New Englander at heart with a weakness for wicked tasty fried clams (Ipswich or Essex), a good donut, brown-bread, frappes, and a Boston sports fan.
