Mr. John Miller has a diverse background in environmental testing, field procedure, data analysis, data interpretation, and chemical/biological properties. During his time at Albright College, he was involved in multiple environmental projects including: Angelica Creek watershed restoration, Acid Mine Drainage remediation projects, wetland soil classifications, plant understory and disturbance data collection, and a well-balanced review of organic and inorganic chemistry. He was also awarded the Edwin L. Bell Endowed Biology award for his research in American Beech Tree Marcescence.
