I hold a Ph.D. from Stanford University in curriculum
and teacher education, with a specialty in science education.
For the past two years, I have been a postdoctoral fellow and
director of the National Board Research Project at Stanford
University, where I had also worked as an instructor and
teaching specialist since 1997. For the past six years, I have
developed and directed a regional professional development
program for practicing teachers who are pursuing National Board
Certification in the San Francisco Bay area. I was a middle
school teacher for five years in Plainsboro, NJ, and an
instructional team leader for four years at the Merck Institute
for Science Education in Rahway, NJ. I have focused my research
on teacher leadership and professional development and formative
assessment in science classrooms.
