Ashley Kijowski, aquatics research scientist for the Utah Division of Natural Resources, was born in St. Charles, Illinois and grew up recreating in northern Wisconsin.

Following a short stint on a National Science Foundation grant at the University of Wisconsin-Stout, she moved to Utah to take up her current position at DNR.

She discusses her work and finishes by sharing her feeling that the Great Salt Lake is an underappreciated part of Utah’s landscape.
