Education

B.S. Degree Zoology, University of Oklahoma. As a student, I specialized in physiological ecology and natural history. I have done extensive field research cataloging flora and fauna of Oklahoma and have assisted with physiological studies of exercise. As a teacher of science, I believe that students can learn how to be more effective in learning about science, they will be more prepared for the higher level thinking and study skills required in college.

I also assist students with Science Fair Projects and the Texas STAAR End-of-Course Science exams for grades 5, 8 & 9.
