Zoe Masterpole studied microbiology at University of Nebraska Lincoln. She received minors in biochemistry and international agriculture. While she was there she worked for the USDA- agricultural research service doing research on stable flies.
Then she volunteered in the Peace Corps in Togo where she worked on agricultural development. She did a lot of reforestation and food security work.
She is now working on a master’s degree in development practice (economic development). Zoe presented to our uppers science classes last week and described her work and how her studies at Lincoln made her aware of the myriad careers associated with STEM.
