How I got here
Like most people, I learned science first from Wile E. Coyote. Much later, I picked up a few pointers from more reputable scientists.
My route to a classroom first went through newspapers. I hold a bachelor's degree in journalism from Boston University.
Since leaving print journalism, I completed my master's in education with Lesley University. Post-graduate work has been through Tufts University and the University of Massachusetts, Amherst.
My most recent professional work outside the classroom has been with a two-year study by the National Writing Project of ways to elicit strong science writing.
