Michael Godwin, Grad Student (Art Studio)
As an aspiring environmentalist I've long been interested in human, landscape, and creature interactions. I have some experience as a birder and am currently taking a Landscape ecology class and wondering about ways to think about landscape and its non-animalian inhabitors as possible collaborators.
