Mark Jordan is a professor and the Chair of the Biology Department at Purdue University Fort Wayne. Mark shares his journey from his time growing up in Iowa to his time living and working on the Galápagos Islands! We hear how Mark found his first opportunities at the National Museum of Natural History which eventually led to a master’s position studying land iguanas in the Galápagos Islands. We also discuss the transition from being a student to being a instructor and mentor taking on his own students.
