My name is Andrew Crowley and I’m in my junior year at Holy Cross where I study Biology and Russian.  I have some experience working in the field thanks to a Freshwater Ecology course I took last fall.  Most of the work I did dealt with biological oxygen demand and primary production in rivers.

In my free time I enjoy hiking and running but if the weather isn’t cooperative then you’ll find me with a history book.  This trip will be the first time I spend a night outside of the US and I’m very excited to get to Russia.

I’m looking forward to learning more about everyone and eventually meeting you!
