I am currently a doctoral candidate in the Urban Education Ph.D program at The Graduate Center, City University of New York. Currently I am working as a Macaulay Instructional technology fellow at Hunter College as well as and adjunct lecturer at Brooklyn College and Long Island University, Brooklyn. I have taught courses in teacher action research methods for pre-service and in-service science teachers, environmental studies, and adolescent and childhood development. My dissertation work is on reimagining environmental education from a youth perspective that incorporates critical pedagogy and participatory research for youth living in urban environments.
