    Education

    As a member of the Fouryouth leadership team, my focus was on (1) overseeing the science and engineering curriculum currently administered by the organization and (2) assisting in collaborations with the University of Delaware and other professional partnerships. I advised on lesson structure, evaluation implementation, and classroom management. I also participated and led the grant writing of several regional and federal grants.

    As a member of the Fouryouth leadership team, my focus was on (1) overseeing the science and engineering curriculum currently administered by the organization and (2) assisting in collaborations with the University of Delaware and other professional partnerships. I advised on lesson structure, evaluation implementation, and classroom management. I also participated and led the grant writing of several regional and federal grants.

    Prior to this, I served as a science and engineering teacher with the organization. I also led the implementation of engineering4youth in Spring 2014. The goal of the program is to teach students (3rd-10th graders) about problem solving and how engineering combine their technical expertise with problem solving skills. Examples of the topics I have worked with already include wind energy, solar energy, robotics, and polymer science.
