"But when we observe, we are forced to pay attention. We have to move from passive absorption to active awareness. We have to engage." ~ Maria Konnikova

I first realized my love of education and interpretation in high school when I participated in a special program at the L.A. Zoo providing tours, supporting their seasonal camp and working hands-on with zookeepers and trainers. This led me to pursue a degree in Zoology at UC Davis where I continued to work with animals and education at their Raptor Center, Equine Research Lab and Sierra Foothill Research Center.
Since then, I have served as a Naturalist and a high school biology and chemistry teacher, founded and published a full-color regional magazine and began my freelance career as an interpretive panel designer. I have also worked with teachers across California to design and develop engaging and exciting standards-based curriculum. (I also love to draw, mostly cats.) Degrees and Certifications:
