As a professional environmental educator, travel writer, and social innovator, my driving research interest is to discover how ecologically informed approaches to community and educational program development can improve the design, implementation, and assessment of cross-border environmental initiatives. I hold an MA in Environmental Conservation Education from NYU, and a BS in Computer Science from the University of Rochester. Most recently I've been teaching Environmental Studies at Pace University, working with The Sustainability Laboratory on several innovative community development projects in Costa Rica and Israel, and conducting research with the Earth Child Institute in Brazil and The Cooper Union in NYC. Dreams include developing and leading new programs in transformative youth environmental education, fostering global environmental citizenship, and bridging worldwide gaps in cultural understanding towards a more unified human society. It is my hope to travel the world to discover, share in, help with, and tell about the niches of the human condition itching for an ounce of positive change.
