Meet our Students - Introducting Aarika!

Hello! My name is Aarika (Fig. 1) and I am one of the new student assistants in the IPM program at the Beaverlodge Research Farm during the summer months.

I am entering my third year of my Bachelor of Science degree with specialization in Psychology at the University of Alberta! I was raised on a farm in Valhalla Centre and look forward to becoming more aware and learning about entomology. I am so excited to be able to gain valuable experience in this program and to do field work/research.

I can’t wait to learn, contribute, and see what the next 4 months hold!
