Hi! My name is Jenna and I’m a senior this year! At Fossil, I play tennis and compete in Science Olympiad! In my free time, I like to read, travel with my family, or play the piano. I really enjoy being part of Fossil’s science community! My goal this year is to unite more of the science community at Fossil so we can continue to grow and create larger and greater things.
Vice President
Hello! My name is Alex McFarland, and I’m a junior this year. I’m super excited to be on the board and to continue serving Fossil and my community. At Fossil, I am a part of the Wind Symphony, where I play the clarinet, and I am also involved in the marching band. Outside of Fossil, I am a member of a competitive robotics team (FRC 4499, The Highlanders) where I work on the mechanical team and the outreach team. A personal goal for me this year is to encourage the scientists at Fossil to be more active in the community, using their love of science and their passion for helping others to make a positive impact.

Hi! My name is Maddie and I am so excited to be a part of the board this year. I am a senior, and I love zoology, conservation biology, oceanography, and veterinary science! In my free time, I love to sing, I love to perform in musical theater, and I try to hang out with and help as many animals as possible, including my Golden puppy and four cats. My goal this year is to try to get as many environmental science and animal community service opportunities as possible available.
