Nothing happens in a vacuum. A strong team is important, and I would not be able to complete the work I do without my team, both past and present. Many of these team members have worked with me as interns through the Geoscientists-in-the-Parks/GeoCorps Programs over the years. I am thankful for all of their hard work and help!
