I am currently lead teaching in a 10th-grade Regents earth science classroom. I plan and execute lessons, make my own student materials, assess student work, and reflect on evidence from assessments to assist in future planning. I have led student discussions, introduced student-led explorations with stream tables, and given students abundant chances to.

I have created and compiled dozens of innovative activities tailored to each lesson in the SAGA Algebra and Geometry curricula, and worked with other members of the team to write, edit, and key lesson plans for a full year of Algebra and Geometry coursework.

While working with the same course load of students as a regular SAGA Fellow, I planned and implemented Professional Development for other tutors, attending additional Professional Development sessions to build my leadership ability within the organization, and worked with our Site Director to develop a warm, dedicated work place environment.

I helped co-teach a non-Regents earth science classroom, leading lessons, grading papers, giving students meaningful feedback, and participating in projects and field trips.

I served as a support system for students and teachers by providing an intensive tutoring-based math intervention in a core class for 9th and 10th graders at public schools serving traditionally low-income families. I helped my 13 students achieve excellence in their regular math classes, with 67% of students earning a C average or higher each quarter and.

While working at the Laboratory for Mineral Physics, I ran dozens of experiments using diamond anvil cells (DACs) in the Laboratory for Mineral Physics, at temperature-pressure conditions approximating the core-mantle boundary, in order to better understand mineral behavior in the Earth’s deep interior. I also managed x-ray diffractometry equipment and.

While working at the Sedimentological and Radiochemical Research Laboratory (SERRL), I efficiently controlled a multi-step chemical process that analyzed gamma decay values and organic carbon content for over one thousand individual samples, and interpreted the geologic record in freshly-cut sediments cores while archiving and describing them.

I determined the mineral composition of rock samples through close examination of hand samples and extensive use of a petrographic microscope, as part of a study comparing erratic boulder composition to bedrock in the archipelago as a proxy for ancient glacial ice-stream direction.
