I am an educator in School & Youth Programs at the Virginia squarium and Marine science center in Virginia Beach. I live in Sandbridge, Virginia, and I’m also volunteering at our Back Bay wildlife refuge. I have recently completed a course with the Chesapeake Bay Foundation and I think the MWEE 101 will be a great learning opportunity for me to incorporate practices, new information, and conservation efforts in our programming for students.
 

I have been teaching nature and natural history for 50 years and am the winner of the New England Environmental Alliance's award for Non-Formal Education. I am a retired geology and environmental science professor but still work at Camp Pemigewassett, a camp for boys in the White Mountains of NH. Interim Vice-President and Board Member: New Hampshire Environmental Educators

I am very interested in obtaining the North American Association for Environmental Education Certification because I want to teach young children to explore and protect our environment. I have participated in various science programs and activities throughout my educational career. I took part in GSK Science in the Summer, the Space Camp Cadette Program, Project Plants (NC State University), the Center for Aquatic Ecology Camp (NCSU), and the Catalyst Program at the Science House (NCSU). These programs have taught me the importance of science in our communities.
