Paul Saunders, Field Instructor, Keystone Science School

Paul grew up on the plains in Northeastern Colorado. The son of a school teacher and a professor, he was doomed from the start to become a nerd. He obtained a degree in Biology from Lewis and Clark College in the spring of 2004 and has held a variety of outdoor education and biological research positions.

Paul has made it to 8 countries spanning 17 time zones (Japan east to France) and is close to reaching all 50 states. In his spare time, anything outside will do. He is an avid cyclist, hiker and skin diver (a difficult activity to pursue in Colorado) and hopes to soon upgrade from knuckle-dragging-snowboarder to exceedingly-graceful-telemark-skier.
