I currently work as a consultant to organizations across the country, who are transforming education through innovative programs in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM).  My work has included curriculum and professional development for Learning.com as well as strategic partnership development with STEM curriculum providers such as LEGO Education, USA Today, Disney Education, and NASA Education.  I have worked with schools and districts in 18 states, to contribute to schoolwide and districtwide STEM initiatives, through long-term strategic planning, funding advice, and implementation support.

I am a frequent speaker on topics related to the policy and practice of STEM education, as well as recruiting and retaining underrepresented population - minorities and females - in STEM fields. I've delivered presentations to the National Science Teacher's Association (NSTA), American Association of University Women (AAUW), Society of Women Engineers (SWE), Northwest Council for Computers in Education (NCCE) and the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH). I recently served on a panel on Capitol Hill for the Women's High Tech Coalition (WHTC).

I currently write a blog about STEM Education, Educate to Innovate with STEM and serve on the board of the Techstart Education Foundation.  I also contribute as a guest blogger on the New York Academy of Sciences Pathways to Science blog for science educators.  I invite you to email me if you have events or projects with which I can help.
