I am very interested in the spiritual and emotional connection between people and place and eco-identity. I have been involved in the EE community for nearly 25 years as a field educator, higher education faculty, business owner, consultant, and past board President of the Colorado Alliance for EE.

Since 1985, the Living Classrooms Foundation has built strong, equitable, and sustainable communities. Our programs leverage surrounding environmental assets and maritime resources to serve as “living classrooms.” Maritime Education is the oldest program at Living Classrooms Foundation.

Working at the Huntsville Botanical Garden in Alabama has been an amazing experience. I have learned so much about nature and our role in it that I continuously pass onto my students. I never pictured myself working outside of a formal classroom but am grateful to have the opportunity to do so.
