I am a science fiction enthusiasts and a high school science teacher, who integrates the science of science fictions in my lessons. One of my goals is to cultivate a love of science in my students and to assimilate the next generation of Trekkies. I am an avid Star Trek fan and cosplayer. Psst, I am that Klingon sitting to your left. Currently, I am completing my doctorate in educational leadership, focusing on how experiential learning affects students’ desire to enter the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) careers.
