about the instructor:

Paris Masek became hooked into the aquatic world as well as its inhabitants working as a fisheries biologist and aquaculturist since the 1970s. Paris has been working in gardens and other agriculture ventures just as long. He is finishing his PhD studies at Arizoan State University working with the who, what, and where of how nature and animals infiltrate the physical, cultural, and imaginative body of Indigenous American literature of the Southwest. Paris is an adjunct English faculty member at South Mountain Community College. 

Translation: he loves to talk fish and tell taller tales. Paris' eclectic knowledge and skill sets have led to him being appointed as a manger for the Quincea Social Enterprise Project, heading up the Agribusiness and Social Enterprise divisions.
