My degree in Resource Management, biology and environmental
education was put to use at Boscobel High School where
I was hired late in the first quarter for a physical science/biology
position. I stayed there for 2 years before working on
a health degree/license at UW Madison. In 1983 I was hired
to teach biology and sixth grade science in West Germany
at the Frankfurt International School. I loved the school,
children and the adventure working in Central Europe provided.
I stayed well beyond my 2-year contract and returned home
in 1991 to work on a Master's degree in Curriculum and
Instruction, Science Education at UW Madison.
During my graduate program I worked as a T. A. supervising
student teachers in secondary science. After moving to
Oshkosh I worked in a similar capacity and also taught
environmental education for the Biology Department as
well as elementary science methods in the C & I department.
For 3 years I directed the CAP Program for the College
of Letters and Science and in 1999 I was hired as the
Director of Field Experience where I currently continue
to serve the College.
