Summary
As a dynamic educator, PhD candidate, and marketing professional, my career has been dedicated to creating meaningful connections—whether in the classroom, through digital marketing, or in environmental advocacy. With over 15 years of teaching experience in Life Sciences, Environmental Science, and AP Physics, I have empowered students to think critically about the world around them, blending scientific inquiry with a deep appreciation for ecological systems. Currently, I am pursuing a PhD at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS), where my focus on Ecology, Spirituality, and Religion shapes my understanding of environmental stewardship and sustainable practices. This interdisciplinary work fuels my passion for fostering a more intentional and holistic relationship between humans and the natural world, drawing insights from ancient and medieval perspectives into contemporary issues like climate change and biodiversity loss. In addition to my academic pursuits, I bring a unique skill set to the marketing realm, helping organizations communicate their stories effectively. I specialize in crafting tailored strategies that resonate with diverse audiences, aligning mission-driven work with authentic engagement. I am always looking for opportunities to collaborate on projects that drive positive change, whether in education, sustainability, or marketing. Let’s connect!
