Teacher Bio:
My grandfather, a pharmacist, was determined to make me a scientist. He gave me my first microscope and my first chemistry set for my 8th birthday. I have always loved science and and the scientific method starting with bugs and plants and of course, dinosaurs. I wrote a comprehensive encyclopedia of dinosaurs when I was in 4th grade. I later fell in love with cell biology, chemistry and physics. My goal, as a teacher, is to spark interest in the sciences and maybe compel my students to learn more science!
