New Collections Manager at PRI
PRI is pleased to announce the arrival of our new collections
manager, Amy Moe. Amy grew up in northern Minnesota and attended Gustavus
Adolphus College, majoring in geology and minoring in studio art. She is
currently completing her MS in Museum Studies at the University of
Colorado at Boulder. Her thesis project is a study of the famous Eocene
fossil insects from Florissant, CO. She has worked in the paleo
collections at the University of Colorado Museum for several years and
played a major role in moving the entire paleo collection into a new
building. Amy will play an integral role in both regular collections
operations and specimen mounting for the Museum of The Earth opening next
spring. She will also be spearheading the movement and reorganization of
PRI’s specimens into new space and the computerization of PRI’s type
collection. We are very excited to have Amy on board.
