Stormwater Education Specialist in Durham County, North Carolina. Informal educator at the Museum of Life and Science. Board member and education specialist for the nonprofit, Trees for the Triangle.

Since developing my passion in wildlife sciences and teaching I have worked at multiple environmental education facilities in an effort to inspire a love of the outdoors in younger generations and the public as a whole. I have multiple years of experience teaching, guiding, and interacting with the public. Through such experience I have developed a thorough knowledge of ecological concepts, interpretive styles, and methods of teaching through experiential education as a whole. I am looking to expand my knowledge base and work toward becoming a better educator by becoming a certified NC Environmental Educator.

I am a former teacher and a third-year PhD student in the Department of Education at the University of York, UK. My research interests include the dialogic and participatory approach to environmental education, the development of environmental literacy in formal educational settings and the design and implementation of educational approaches that focus on addressing the issue of climate justice.

I help organizations, school districts, and local governments achieve stronger connections with their communities and a healthy, more sustainable future for everyone.  

I am an enviromental education/arts integration teacher at Watershed Public Charter School in Baltimore County, MD.
