Echinacea Project 2016

Hi everyone! My name is Rachel Rausch, and I’m so excited to be a part of Team Echinacea this summer. I graduated from Morris Area High School a few weeks ago, and will be attending the University of Minnesota Twin Cities this fall, studying Psychology.

Research Interests

Because UMN is a research institution, I’m looking forward to getting research experience this summer. This will be my first hands on experience with conservation biology and I’m excited to learn about the research process.

Statement

I’m from Morris, MN which is about 30 miles from Kensington. I In my free time, I love to read, rollerblade, and enjoy Minnesota’s 10,000 lakes. I love learning new things, and in my 18 years on earth have attempted to knit, play piano, weld, unicycle, and make an ice sculpture.
