Since April of 2018, I have become a resident of the beautiful state of Colorado. I am having so much fun investigating new areas and environment after living so many years in Texas. I worked for the State of Texas in several positions related to the protection of children. If iNaturalist and digital pictures had been available when I was growing up, I don't think I would have dropped out of my biology major and might have had a different career path. I got my Ph.D. in Educational Psychology from U.T. in Austin. I feel lucky that I did get to work with some fine people in my work life and do something that I felt was worth trying to do, but am grateful now to be able to spend so much time outside and to continue to learn about this amazing natural world that surrounds us. One of my other citizen science activities is with River Watch where I sample the Uncompahgre River in Confluence Park. Judith Ellen Lopez
