Prior to this role, I was a lead preschool teacher at the center for eight years.  During this time, I completed my Ph. D. My disseration research focused on young children's connections with(in) nature and continues to be an area of interest. I also participate in facilitating and dissemenating research with my colleagues at the Child Development Center and the School of Teaching, Learning and Curriculum Studies.
