Elizabeth Hinkle is from Kansas City, Kansas and moved to Corpus Christi, Texas in 2008 to earn her Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy and Bachelor of Science in Biology from Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. There, she worked as an undergraduate research technician in a fisheries population genetics laboratory focusing on an Indo-Pacific goby species, Eviota sigillata. She also graduated with Honors from the University and completed a capstone project concentrated on understanding the innate human biases associated with endangered species protection. Following her undergrad, she worked for the Alaska Department of Fish and Game for four seasons before returning to school at the University of Texas at Tyler where she completed her Masters of Science in Biology in 2018. Her thesis focused on determining the host-fish and life history characteristics of a state-listed freshwater mussel species, Pleurobema riddellii. She is now working on her PhD with Jeff Falke where she is focusing on how wildfires and climate change are affecting aquatic systems within the boreal watershed. Elizabeth also has a wide swath of interests spanning from mycology to backpacking to gardening.
