My name is Adam Dignan. I was born in Massachusetts and was raised in Livermore Falls, Maine. I am a Senior at the University of North Carolina Charlotte, double majoring in Biology and Accounting. Prior to enrolling at UNCC, I served 11 and a half years in the United States Marine Corps where I forward deployed six times to Iraq, Afghanistan, Japan, and the Persian Gulf. Upon graduation, I hope to use my dual degrees to further my passion for conservation biology by helping a not-for-profit organization. I am an active member of the Student Veteran’s Association and Alpha Sigma Lambda.
