Silas Batty

Project Team Member

Silas is a junior majoring in Geological Sciences with a lot of curiosity about Earth’s ancient past. He hopes to pursue a Master’s degree in paleontology and one day work in museums, where he can conduct research, help build engaging exhibits, and lead tours that inspire visitors of all ages. Silas loves studying trilobites and other early invertebrates that reveal what life was like long before dinosaurs, but he also has a soft spot for giant megafauna like Manny. He’s excited to help bring prehistoric science to life through this fun children’s book and hopes it encourages young readers to imagine themselves as future fossil explorers.
