I have my Master of Science (2010) and Bachelor of Science (2006) degrees in entomology from UCR and TAMU , respectively. The title of my thesis was, 'Effect of Feeding Food Types Known to Contain or Lack Arachidonic and Eicosapentaenoic Acids on Anopheles hermsi Larval Development.' I am commissioned as a medical entomologist in the United States Army. I have been an administrator on Wikispecies since 30 september 2006. I have been inactive for two years and now I am back to contribute to the project.

To Do
Request to keep administrator rights. (awaiting approval)
Re-evaluate what I have completed below.
Clean up the >3000 Orphaned pages .
Correct the >20 Double redirects .
Address the >250 Broken redirects .
Redirect synonyms and such with currently accepted taxa (I no longer think this makes sense. Synonyms should not have their own pages to be redirected.)
Edit taxa listed as "done" on Wikispecies:Done_and_to_do .
