Kristály is a writer for the University of South Florida Saint Petersburg chapter. She loves writing about topics relating to Botany, Ichthyology, Geography, and anything in the Natural world.
They are studying Ecology and Plant Sciences at USFSP. They plan to work in the Botanical or Ichyological field either as a researcher or ecologist. She has previous experience working with population, range, and morphological data from sustained volunteering with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources as well as some experience with laboratory processes from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission Research Institute.
In her free time she loves to use Inaturalist and get to know the plants native to their region. She likes to sketch and hopes to become better at scientific illustration and sewing in the future. She also wishes to get better at her first language, because she forgot it when they stopped speaking it at home after she came back to America.
