Hello and Прив?т!
I’m Ksenia Everton! I’m Ukrainian, an environmentalist, a teacher, a biologist, and a learner. I love science, backpacking, reading, chocolate, traveling, borshch, my family, and my cats! I’m excited to be learning biology with you this term.
I’ve been teaching at PCC for over a decade, and have taught several different classes, mostly at the Rock Creek campus. A favorite of mine has been the Principles of Biology series (BI211, BI212, BI213) which I highly recommend for people who are interested in science research, a biology/related field bachelor’s degree, or for those planning on applying to medical school.
As of 2022, I teach BI112: Cell Biology for Hearth Occupations and the Anatomy and Physiology series (BI231, BI232, BI233).
My husband and I backpacking in Mt. Rainier National Park. It was really early in the season (beginning of July) so the weather was moody — a lot of mist and fog all week.

My kids hiking through a forest in western Ukraine several years ago. We lost the trail so there was a little “bushwhacking” involved, which the kids had mixed feelings about ?

Two friends and I backpacking Mt. Hood. It is the first week of October so we had no planned for THIS much snow! It was very exciting.

Beautiful seaweed (which is a kind of protist (type of an organism) — not a plant!) on southern Olympic coast in Washington state. The diversity and beauty of these organisms here is incredible!
