My growth in the field of environmental education continued to evolve when I stepped into a role as a part time school garden educator in the spring of 2021 followed by a full time role as an outdoor educator in fall of 2022 at my current k-8 private school, GSES.  At the time, I was unfamiliar with Outdoor Education as a content area since it did not exist in the previous schools in which I taught, but soon discovered that it was my calling.  I dove right in and I am currently the Director of Outdoor Education, the teacher sponsor for Eco Club, the school garden guru, summer camp instructor and the junior group coordinator for a neighborhood community association called Friends of Forest Hill Park (FFHP).
