Teacher expertise and credentials
I am passionate about nature and animals sciences. I have lived in a coastal region for 12 years and have participated in numerous learning experiences through the North Carolina Aquarium system. I have presented a number of presentations on marine life to students from kindergarten through eighth grade in the public school setting. Due to my 10+ years in the classroom, I feel comfortable and confident answering questions and leading discussions on sharks and other marine life. I love seeing students energy and enthusiasm for learning about animals and the ocean, and I look forward to sharing my knowledge and passion with them!
