New job

Hey all -
Thought I would let you know here - I got a new job. I am leaving the comfortable nest of Colorado State University, where I have been since starting my master's degree 5+ years ago. I am heading to an Environmental consulting firm, Golder Associates , where I will be an environmental staff scientist, doing mining reclamation and restoration, environmental impact statements and a bunch more. Will have to tell you more when I know more myself.

I had started to hit up against the ceiling in academia placed upon those who are in research but don't have PhD's. In addition, the salary was not nearly enough for our needs. This job is better on both accounts. The only drawback is that is in Denver. They have a Fort Collins office that I might be able to start working in some, but def. not to begin with. So I'll be communting. I think I have reserved a place on a van pool, so that is good. But it means a much longer day. So, potentially we will move south to the big city.

We'll keep you informed. Hope you all are doing well, and I hope to see you on these pages sooner rather than later!

Love,
Sanjay
