I am a native North Carolinian, mother to a determined UGA student, and married to my best friend.  I spent several years in television news and in the public education classroom before finding my niche in environmental education only recently.  Until a move last fall, I worked as an education with a environmental center in metro Atlanta, Georgia. I enjoy photography, traveling, cooking, my dogs, and spending time with my elderly  mother, who now lives with me.

 

I have embraced a deep commitment to EE since the early 1980s, serving as Director of Education at Pine Jog EE Center for over 25 years. I also served on NAAEE's Board, and was a founding member of the Green School National Network Board. I am humbled to have received the 2017 Walter E Jeske Award.

I am a career educator with over 15 years of experience in public school settings and 5 seasons of outdoor education in state and local parks. I currently work with 4-H at the University of Maryland implementing environmental education programs aimed at developing life skills through civic action.

A Champion of Environment conservation through education and implementation of climate change mitigation programs through collaboration and strengthening partnerships for a safe, greener and healthy mother Earth.
