My Project

I love to learn and pursue professional opportunities. I enjoy grant writing and hope to continue searching for opportunities for myself professionally and for the growth of my students. Students often dream up fabulous projects in their respective interests. I like to give them time to pursue the in-depth learning of an interest, calling it Genius Hour. Sometimes the student's projects need additional funds which I try to acquire through grants.

I learn so much from my students' Genius Hour projects.

I also learn from the processes that the students encounter as they dig deeper into an interest.
