Imparting an understanding of and enthusiasm for evolution & ecology
Women in ScienceAs part of Michigan State University's Graduate Women in Science chapter,
I helped design and implement the first annual Middle School Girls Math & Science Day at MSU. The video below describes the impact of this event on young girls and the scientific community. |
Darwin Day EventsI have been actively involved in communicating evolution to the public at many Darwin Day celebrations at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Michigan State University.

Museum EducationMy work & motivation to become a scientist were highlighted at Michigan State University Museum in an exhibit on women in science.
I developed and presented an interactive exhibit on the Science of Breakfast at the Museum of Science & Industry in Chicago with other graduate students in chemistry and engineering to show how proteins change shape when you add heat or ethanol. I directed and taught summer science camps at the North Carolina Museum of Life and Science. |
