Gabby Izsak
BA from Washington University in 2003
Dual Major in Earth and Planetary Sciences and Environmental Studies
I was born in Jackson, Mississippi and lived in Lakeland, Florida for most of my life. I attended Washington University for 4 years from 1999-2003. During the summer of 2002 I attended a geologic field camp with the University of Nevada Reno, where I learned many field skills. I plan to attend graduate school starting in the fall of 2005, and plan to focus on field geology. I am currently working on a project where I am radio metrically dating a suite of volcanic rocks in the St. Francois Mountains. I also work at Washington University as a PDS Mission Archivist, and am highly involved with the current Mars Exploration Rover mission.

BA Washington University in St Louis 2003
Major in Earth and Planetary Science and Chemistry
I was born in England and lived for 20 years in Connecticut before attending
Washington University for 4 years. I graduated last May with a degree in Earth and Planetary Science and Chemistry. My academic interest is both field and laboratory geology with an emphasis on mineralogy. I eventually plan on attending graduate school somewhere in the western United States. I enjoy the outdoors: hiking, camping, mountain biking and skiing. I am also the Men’s Water polo Coach at Washington University after having played for the school for 4 years.
