Scientific paper

I have been involved with two Planetary Society geology expeditions looking for evidence of asteroid impacts. We worked in Belize and Italy with teams of international scientists from various scientific fields. Through the REVEL program, I spent two weeks onboard the RV Atlantis studying hydrothermal vents off the coast of Washington. I worked with an interdisciplinary team of scientists and graduate students and was involved in designing my own research project. As an educator I have designed activities for my students which were based on these research experiences. My students became aware of the type of science taking place in this "cutting-edge" research. I have learned to work in a team and have encouraged my students to work in that manner as well. The contacts that I have made have provided sources of information, borrowing equipment and other research opportunities. This research experience also supports my high school research science program.
