...in order to train the next generation of researchers and explorers. On the other hand, learning science (learning anything, in fact) is best done with context in mind; if you can sufficiently teach someone, especially a layperson, the subject matter that you are studying, then you know that you got it! I have been teaching for five years not only because it is helpful in giving back to the community, but also because I need...

I am a 24 year old filmmaker, animator, and plant enthusiast recently transplanted to the bustling city of Seattle. I grew up in the coulee region in Wisconsin and attended three colleges in the area: the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities, the University of Wisconsin - La Crosse, and, my alma mater, the University of Wisconsin - Stout. My scenic route through college was the product of indecision and confusion regarding my future...... Every person and student is different, and the way in way they learn is different too. To be a good teacher, one has to know their student. Getting to know them is where the teaching process begins.

Besides education, my interests and hobbies include theatre, cooking, camping, and volunteerism. In my professional and personal life, I adhere to the motto of my favorite writer, E.M. Forster: “Only connect.” By shaping meaningful connections with others, we come alive to...
