The observer
I've been teaching in Buffalo Public Schools since 2017 — six years in special education, three in general science, and science all the way through — much of it building environmental science programs, field experiences, and classroom technology at McKinley High School. This fall I'm joining City Honors School's STARS program as a science special education teacher, working with students with autism.
Off the clock I'm a self-described history nerd and data nerd — the kind of person who turns a census table into terrain and reads weather model output for fun. If a story about Buffalo, energy, or ecology can be made visible, I'll probably try to build it.
When the laptop closes: sailing Lake Erie, fishing the Upper Niagara, and slowly carving a camp out of the Adirondack woods.
