About Dr. Becker
Aside from my academic endeavors, I enjoy the works of
J.
R. R. Tolkien, classical (particularly
Baroque), jazz, and
progressive
rock music, PBS nature, science, and history documentaries, and
motorcycling around the Valley in the summer months.
I am also a trained NWS storm spotter and earned a certificate in
weather forecasting from Penn State University. I run
Apex Wx, a private weather information service,
focusing on Fort Kent and the Saint John Valley.
