I entered a graduate program at the University of Illinois where I received a Master's Degree in Journalism with a focus on science reporting and where I also wrote articles for the Supercomputing Center. I continued my education at the University of Illinois, obtaining a Master's Degree in Curriculum and Instruction with an emphasis on Science Education. After that, I entered a doctoral program at the University of Florida where I obtained my Education Doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction with an emphasis on Science and Technology Education. While at the University of Florida, I worked on educational technology projects and science curriculum projects, one of which was the focus of my dissertation. I took additional science courses throughout my graduate education to expand my understanding in both the life and physical sciences. I have taken additional science courses at the graduate level, focusing on astronomy and physics.
