Casie UR, Introduction

Garth and I in New Smyrna Beach FL
Hello, my name is Casie Rowland and I am enrolled in the Oceanography Lab at Daytona State College. I have always been in love with the ocean and as a Florida native I have always found it a great vast mystery in need of exploration. I am excited about taking this course as I feel that it will not only introduce me to the wonders of sea life but it will give me my first taste of being a scientist. I also hope that in doing the Independent Research Project it will give me a leg up when applying to other universities.


I am interested in everything outdoors and becasue of this I pursued a degree in Outdoor Education and Leadership in Wyoming for several years. After a devastating knee injury I was forced to refocus and find another passion.  Now after some time and thinking  I hope to get my bachelors degree in Ecology and Conservation Biology at the University of Idaho and possibly a masters in Hydrology.  Last summer we took a cross country road trip to Idaho and fell in love with the state. Me, my boyfriend Garth Parish who is also taking this course and our pup Gomez will all be moving to Moscow Idaho after finishing this semester to attend the university. This has been a long time goal of ours and we can't wait to get out there and explore that part of the country.
