[edit] Andrew Colvin
My name is Andrew Zachary Colvin. I am a United States citizen born in Phoenix, Arizona and living in Colorado. I am extremely fascinated with science and plan to attain a Ph.D in ecology and evolutionary biology to be a science educator at the professional and collegiate level.
Anything else you want to know you can ask me here on Wikipedia, or contact me below. I am an extremely “at ease” person and I will tell you anything you want to know and give you the help and advice I can. For other questions or comments relating to Wikipedia please visit my talk page or direct email.
I perform a wide range of edits and attempt to avoid engaging in discussions—as they rarely lead to any positive outcomes. For the most part, I read articles for enjoyment. Very rarely do I write full articles; however, I do research material to cite sources in articles that are missing them. I am also proficient at graphic designing and often contribute to articles with PNG diagrams.

[edit] Quotes
"Common sense is what tells you the world is flat." - Anonymous
"So powerful is the light of unity that it can illuminate the whole earth". - Anonymous
"A mind once stretched by a new idea never regains its original dimensions." - Anonymous
"I am against religion because it teaches us to be satisfied with not understanding the world." - Richard Dawkins
"After sleeping through a hundred million centuries we have finally opened our eyes on a sumptuous planet, sparkling with color, bountiful with life. Within decades we must close our eyes again. Isn’t it a noble, an enlightened way of spending our brief time in the sun, to work at understanding the universe and how we have come to wake up in it? This is how I answer when I am asked—as I am surprisingly often—why I bother to get up in the mornings." - Richard Dawkins
