Hi Everyone! I’m Kim Schindler. I moved to Lexington in July of 2011. I’m originally from a small town in the Hill Country of Texas. I received my BS in Ocean and Coastal Resources from Texas A&M University-Galveston in 2006 and shortly thereafter, moved to south Mississippi for 5 years. I enjoyed my time at the University of Southern Mississippi, but I’m very happy here in Lexington and at UK.
I am currently the lab technician/lab manager of the Sedimentary, Environmental, Radiochemical Research Lab (SER2L). I’ve worked with Dr. Kevin Yeager since 2003 (almost 13 years!), and I love the research that we do. I currently oversee the day to day operations of the lab, as well as training and supervising our graduate and undergraduate students in the laboratory.
