My name is Chris Moody, and I'm a 24 year old environmental graduate living at home in Dorset, UK.

I recently graduated from Bournemotuh University with a 1st Class degree in Environment & Coastal Management, and have had the fortune to take part in several short term ecology and conservation contracts over the last 2 years.

The degree provided me with a range of knowledge and skill, including:

• GIS - ArcGIS, MapInfo, Surfer 8, Google Earth, MapSource
• Lab skills - Identification of preserved specimens, dissection, good lab practice, analytical chemistry...
• Field skills -Vegetation & habitat surveys, use of handhelp GPS units and total stations...
• Environmental policy & Law - Awareness of existing terrestrial and marine legislation as well as upcoming legislation such as the Marine Bill
• Computing skills - A history in IT provides me with an advantage in most computer applications, fast and accurate data entry...

As well as the topics covered by my degree, I have an interest in photography, sculpting, scuba diving, and invertebrates (I am currently breeding a species of tropical beetle, and in the past have kept various species of shrimp and insects!)

I specifically enjoy combining my interests, such as underwater photography, or geocaching with sculpting (by creating pieces for placing in caches). 

 If you have any further questions regarding myself or the website, please feel free to contact me.
