Sean Ross grew up in the mountains of Colorado, which ingrained in him a love of the natural world. He lives in the Denver suburb of Littleton, but escapes the city as often as possible to explore Colorado’s fantastic geology. He currently attends Red Rocks Community College and is on track to earn an Associate of Science degree in spring 2017. He then plans to transfer to the Colorado School of Mines with the eventual goal of graduate study in the field of geochemistry.
