Aquaculture

This is my Aquaculture Blog - I am currently pursuing an Associate Degree in Aquaculture, with hopes of eventually obtaining a Ph.D. in Marine Biology. With a year in multimedia (Westwood College, Denver), of course my focus is on photography, including microscopy which has became a personal favorite hobby.
