Outside of the Middleburg Chocolate Factory, Vermont
|
As my chosen career path, I teach & research with undergraduates at Southwestern University. I started teaching with chocolate in 2005. This small curiosity sparked a professional interest & hobby in chocolate. At every opportunity, I spend my leisure and travel time studying and interacting with the world of fine chocolate. I consider "to chocolate" or "chocolating" both verbs.
I designed this website as a gateway into the aspects of my academic life from chocolate education to teaching biology and researching the ecology, diversity and distribution of apple snails. The bottom of this page has a few pictures of my dear and recently departed Bichons (Cupcake; 10/29/19 and Twinkie 12/20/21; Ages 15.9 and 18.1, respectively). Known collectively as the puptarts, they brought me much joy and comfort over the years and I miss them. I will be "dog-less" until I return from London in 2022 so it's good to have a place they will always be (besides in my heart of course).
