About the Weird Guy

My photo
Mike
Oregon
I recently graduated from Oregon State University with a degree in Bioengineering and I keep a variety of arthropods, the majority of which are scorpions. My post-college job hunt has not gone very well and so I will begin pursuing my master's degree in January. If anyone reads this and has any bug-related questions, especially pertaining to scorpions, I can be reached at Mike dot Reitmajer at Gmail dot Com. I'm more than happy to offer any help I can.
