The Spark: A Radio Interview

Just last week, Martha Woodruff from WMRA and the host of The Spark aired an interview that we had in October. I was thrilled with the results. I just had my first call this morning asking for some of my activities for a school near Norfolk. Thank you Martha!

If you are interested, here is the link to the interview:

If you find this and are interested in the activities that I do, just email me. I would be happy to help.

My background...

I find and develop science and engineering activities to take into our local elementary school. I rely on parent and university student volunteers to help me run the experiments and guide the hands-on activities for the kids. I have worked as a manufacturing engineer developing tools and stations for a manufacturing line. I later earned a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering and taught design and manufacturing at a university until I had children. Now I spend my time working on this new program to make STEM fun for kids!
