Welcome to my home page! I am an educational coordinator with the NASA Digital Learning Network (education.nasa.gov/dln) here at NASA Glenn Research Center. I hold a Masters degree in Education and have been involved in education in some way--instructor, classroom teacher, educational coordinator, cooperative education coordinator--for 29 years. My employer is NCI, Inc. My special interests are communications technology (especially Web-based and videoconferencing technologies) and technical writing. My tasks include:
  • serving as DLN team lead for content development
  • editing Web pages
  • working with NASA scientists/researchers to develop and present videoconferencing sessions to students and teachers
  • supporting NASA Explorer Schools
  • making presentations at conferences
  • writing articles to promote our educational products and to report on our research into the use of technology in the educational setting
  • conducting field tests of our educational products.

My newest project, which has received international recognition, is called Science Through ARts (STAR). Click here for information on STAR.
