Autorenporträt

Ken Weissenburger is a consulting geologist and part-time instructor in geology at Pikes Peak Community College. Professor John H. Lewis first introduced him to geology in Colorado Springs at a Colorado College National Science Foundation summer program for high school juniors. Ken majored in geology at the University of Colorado and also earned a high school teaching credential. He was a teaching assistant and Steele Fellow in applied earth sciences at Stanford University (MS, Environmental Geochemistry, PhD Ore Deposits and Exploration). He has worked on projects in engineering, mining, and oil and gas field development in the lower 48, Alaska, Africa, Australia, Canada, Europe, and the Middle East. Update 2019 -- Ken has migrated to Colorado's western slope, but still maintains contacts with El Paso County. Sharon and Ken both continue their long-standing relationships as volunteers with the Denver Museum of Nature & Science (DMNS). They support the work of talented scientists at DMNS and have been integral participants in the newly announced fossil discoveries at Corral Bluffs on the eastern side of Colorado Springs.
