INTRODUCTION

Hi, my name is Anne.  I majored in Chemistry and graduated with a BSc. Chemistry in 2005 and was not quite sure what I wanted my graduate degree to be, so I chose to work.  I have worked in a variety of places, doctor’s clinics, UNHCR, commercial laboratories, Disney – EPCOT and Animal Kingdom doing their water chemistry, and currently working for a large environmental firm out of their Destin Florida office as Project Chemist.  I currently do a little bit of field work, as well as report writing which involves a significant amount of tables and figures and this is where my interest for GIS came about.  I am clueless as to all the “jargon” and honestly a little terrified of what is to come but I am determined to hang in there and see this through.  I believe that my confidence in the course will increase with time  :-)!
