About Me
In 2013, I discovered the Modeling approach to teaching chemistry (which was transformative for me) through what eventually became STEMteachersNYC. Working with inspired and dedicated teachers as both a workshop participant and facilitator has allowed me to grow and understand the art and science of helping students learn. After 35 years of teaching Chemistry (AP, IB, Honors, and College Prep), Physics (College Prep) and Physical Science in both public and private/independent high schools in various parts of the country, I am now enjoying retirement as I continue to learn new ways of thinking about education.
