Meet the Students: Jimmy Klick

Hola! 
24 years ago I was born in Basel, a small city along the Rhine river in Switzerland, where Germany and France meet. With the Alps in my backyard I was raised with a love for the environment. However, when my family and I moved to the United States ten years ago, I would have never guessed to be here writing this post and pursuing a Master's Degree in Urban Forestry with a great interest in Restoration Ecology. 
And now, Puerto Rico awaits! I am greatly looking forward to learn everything about your beautiful island; from Ecology to Horticulture and beyond. Also, I can't wait to meet everyone and squeeze as much information out of you as possible. Hopefully, you will be doing the same to me.
All the best and see you soon! 
Jimmy
