Assignment 1: Introduce Yourself

Hello,

My name is Raelyn Eastwood. I typically go by “RAE” or “EASTWOOD.” I am an Army veteran and my MOS was 68R10 Medical Food Inspection Specialist. I was stationed on NAVSTA Rota, Spain in a unit of 5, with headquarters in Vincenza, Italy. My second duty station was MCAS Miramar in San Diego, CA. While there, I worked on MCAS Miramar, MCRD, Point Loma Sub Base, NAVSTA Coronado, Camp Pendleton, and a few other areas with my HQ out of Fort Irwin, CA.

I am pursuing my Bachelor’s of Science in Biology with a concentration in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology and my minor in Wildlife Biology. I currently work as a Pathways Intern for the United States Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources Conservation Service, Soil Science Division as an Ecologist. My spouse and I have one fur baby and are grateful we were able to move back to the great state of Alaska!

Good luck this semester!
