My favorite science experience happened in ancient history (1975-1978) when I was working as a forester in the Peace Corps in Guatemala in Central America. There was a massive outbreak of pine-infesting bark beetles that killed millions of pine trees in Guatemala. It was that experience that made me want to study forest insects, and so after returning to the United States in 1978, I went to graduate school at the University of Wisconsin to study forest entomology.
