Jimmy
Based in Orlando, FL - Jimmy is a Teacher and Paleontologist, specializing in dinosaurs.
He previously served as President of the Florida Fossil Hunters, and is a former paleontologist for Orlando Science Center.
“When I was two years old, my Mom would take me to the American Museum of Natural History in New York. When I first saw the massive jaws and towering skeleton of Tyrannosaurus rex, I was hooked for life. Teaching the world about dinosaurs is my passion. I earned my Bachelors' in Biology - Micro/Genetics and Digital Art at Stetson University, and my Masters' in Science Education at University of Central Florida.”
