May we grow a generation to imagineer a more just and beautiful world.
About me
I straddle the worlds of robotics and theology, 2nd, 3rd and 4th grade Research Fellows and Virtual World students at the Baden Academy Charter School Media Lab and undergraduates at Duquesne University, small business ownership (Grow a Generation, LLC) and community advocacy (director of the Beaver County STEM Education Coalition).
I live with my husband and youngest child in our home in Southwestern Pennsylvania.
My work
I am an adjunct professor at Duquesne University where I teach the University Core Course Global and Cultural Perspectives. While students investigate Hindu, Buddhist, and Muslim faith traditions, they learn to use the tools of scholarship to analyze the role spirituality, religion, and theology have in shaping personal, communal and global life. Students can expect to learn to edit Wikipedia, communicate new knowledge through the creation of digital artifacts, and collaborate on meaningful projects.
