Hi! I'm Roberta, and I'm a non-formal environmental educator in Lexington, Kentucky. My interests are technical and science communication, DEIA, digital accessibility, and community engagement. In my work for the KY Division for Air Quality, I help Kentuckians understand what's in the air they breathe and what they can do about it. I've worked in EE for more than 40 years, and air quality is the most challenging topic I've encountered in terms of teaching and helping others understand.

Some fun facts about me: I've helped map passageways in Mammoth Cave National Park and Kartchner Caverns State Park. Although my primary work has always been in environmental education, I once took a temporary job doing singing telegrams!
