I am a student at NKU and need to use this site for my course.

I am married and have two sons and three grandchildren.  I have worked as a paraprofessional in ID self contained classrooms for 31 years.  I am in a program through Eau Claire Universitiy called "Transition to teaching."  My goal is to become a licensed teacher and teach my own classroom.  I love to read, cook, take walks, travel, shop, and spend time with my family and grandchildren.  

I am a senior Earth and Environmental Science student at Susquehanna University.

I am currently a graduate student at UNCW pursuing my MS in Environmental Science and MAT in Middle Grades Education. My background is in biology with a concentration in microbio and marine science, as well as in experiential education primarily through rock climbing and other adventure-ed programs.

Preethi Mony is a specialist in the field of environmental education, program evaluation and grants and has a wide range of experience from developing resource matierials, conducting programs with children and adults, as well as evaluating programs and grant reporting.

Growing up in the busy metropolis of Mumbai, she quickly recognized the importance of the social aspects of conservation in protecting the natural world. She has worked with organizations in India and the US to help with environmental education program planning and resource development. She has over 20 years of experience working with zoos and museums to evaluate programs and exhibits and recommend strategies to improve the overall visitor experience. Over the last 2 years, she has worked at a local community college to support grant work (federal, state, and private) as well as to inform data driven decision making in the diversity, equity, and inclusion space. She brings all of these experiences to her current role of EE Grant and Program Manager at NAAEE.

Preethi holds a Ph.D. in Natural Resources from The Ohio State University. She earned her M.S. in interdisciplinary Ecology from the University of Florida, and a B.Sc. in Life Sciences from the University of Mumbai, India.

Im a senior at Susquehanna University studying anthropology, environmental studies, and environmental education. I currently work at a behavioral health school as a teacher's aid. I gained interest in education through my mother's extensive experience in the field. 

I enjoy creating and facilitating educational experiences for kids.  I design camps, activities, and lessons that help younger audiences learn about wildlife conservation.  I also enjoy learning myself.  I am always seeking professional development to enhance my knowledge.
