January Monthly Meeting: Guest Speaker - Colin Boisvert

Colin Boisvert is 26 years old and working towards trying to become a tenure-track professor one day at a university. He is currently a PhD student at the Oklahoma State University Center for Health Sciences in Tulsa, Oklahoma. As a paleontologist he has always been fascinated by Dinosaurs and especially allosauroids though he has a soft spot for Pleistocene megafauna as well. He has spent time digging in both Montana and Utah through grad school and Internships and hopes to expand that list of dig locations in the future. In his free time Colin loves hiking with friends, visiting family, visting natural history museums, watching movies and reading.
