Research & Interests

I have a strong interest in developing novel teaching strategies for science education.
I have developed programs for K-career microbiology education, and do a great deal of community outreach through schools, libraries and homeschool organizations.
My venture into distance learning has afforded me the opportunity to develop many innovative ways to convey biological concepts and techniques through distance learning as well.
