I'm a science educator with over 20 years of experience inspiring students to connect with the natural world and address environmental challenges. With a focus on Life Sciences, Chemistry, and Environmental Education, I create hands-on learning experiences that empower students to think critically and take action. Environmental education is central to my work—I’ve developed school gardens, outdoor classrooms, and projects that combine sustainability with real-world problem-solving. With a Master’s in Natural Science and Environmental Education, I’m passionate about preparing students to lead in a changing world. When I’m not teaching, I enjoy photography, exploring nature, and mentoring students through STEAM programs.
