 I'm Dr. Brandy Gardner, I'm a climate change hydrologist and I study the impact of climate change on growing season length, which is the amount of time that trees stay green. I have a Masters of Science in Online Technology and Instructional Design, and I'm also working on a Masters of Education in Lifelong Learning and Adult Education. Both of these degrees have taught me the value of an open communication and learning environment. So with that in mind, feel free to contact me, even if it's just to say hi. I have a lot of hobbies outside of academia including running, walking, hiking, and reading. I also have a daughter, Anna Marie. She was born July 2021 and she keeps life very fun and interesting. I look forward to meeting you in the future and have a great day!
