About Me
I am a fourth-year Auburn student studying Organismal Biology in the College of Science and Mathematics. I love animals in or out of work, I enjoy fishing with my father, and above everything love to spend a day in the sun with a good book.
Is it feasible to teach a family of primates to communicate through sign language?
Throughout high school and university, I had seen some researchers teach some primates sign language to communicate basic concepts. I wondered, is it possible to have primates communicate with each other using this method rather than just with the researcher individually?
4 Year Plan
My 4 year plan
In the next 4 years I hope to graduate from Auburn and find an AZA-facility to work at and contribute to their mission to bring exceptional care to the animals and educate guests on the wonderful species that inhabit our planet and how we can help to save their habitats and livelihoods.
