About our Guest:

For 32 years, I've been a passionate STEM educator at Southwestern Middle School in Jamestown, NY. I specialize in Project-Based Learning (PBL), helping students dive deep into STEM concepts through hands-on projects. My classroom is abuzz with creativity, where students explore coding, robotics, LEGO building, and maker activities. It's all about igniting their curiosity and empowering them to become the next generation of innovators!
