I remember the first time I wanted to be a teacher: I was in second grade and thought that my teacher had the coolest, most fun job ever. Throughout middle and high school I explored ideas of other careers ranging from dentist to architect, but I always came back to teacher. In college, I learned that Museum Educator was a job and I was priveleged to have my first position in that role after my freshman year. From there, I have completed degrees in education and museum studies and have worked in a variety of roles in those fields. I am passionate about history, science, and lifelong learning.
