My name is Janessa Welke and I am a freshman at the University of Wisconsin- La Crosse. This webpage was part of a project for my Organismal Biology class and part of a larger project found at MultipleOrganisms.net. I am majoring in Biology with a biomedical concentration and minoring in chemistry. After completing my Bachelor's Degree, I plan on continuing my education by going to graduate school and then working as a Physician Assistant. I like spending my spare time outside. I enjoy camping, fishing, and playing sports with friends and family. I chose to research the Brook Stickleback because I enjoy fishing and thought it would be interesting to learn more about one of the prevalent species of fish in the La Crosse area. If you have any questions or comments about my webpage you can contact me by email at welke.jane@students.uwlax.edu.
