If Ashley Dowling hopes to accomplish one thing as an educator, it would be to rekindle the appreciation for insects your 3-year-old self once had.

Ashley's research focuses on the mite world, which includes ticks and chiggers among many others. To Ashley, the best scientific discoveries come from careful observation and an openness to ask new questions.
