About
My name is Tanisa, I am 18 and I have been interested in learning about nature for as long as I can remember. As a kid, I would play with bugs and read books about animals as well as watching animal documentaries. I also really liked dinosaurs and loved the field museum, I’ve probably been there more times than I can count on my fingers. I am interested in biology because I am set on helping the earth due to my love of nature. My goal is to work in conservation someday somewhere warm.
