Museum Education Staff

The Museum's educators are experts at communicating science concepts to audiences of all ages. They strive to help people discover new ways of looking at the natural world.

All are skilled communicators who involve students in their presentations and make learning an exciting experience. Our educators also work closely with the Museum's research departments to stay up-to-date on their information.

We welcome your questions and feedback.
