She provides both virtual and in-person presentations/workshops. She aims to inspires her students and educators to interconnect, cross curriculum boundaries, spark students’ curiosity and imagination but also encourages youth of all ages and genders to become increasingly involved in the sciences. Space Education impacts her life coaching, teaching, STEM and STEAM programs alike. She is an alumni of Space Center University - 2008.

In her years of teaching with the Inuit of Nunavik, she honed her creative skills and designed hands-on curriculum to increase the communication skills of unilingual Inuktitut speaking children. She credits her experiences as a teacher in the village of Aupaluk’s Tarsakallak School, for providing her with a prodigious start to her teaching career.

 As an entrepreneur she continues to inspire children through her online and onsite Science Yourself! No G’s About It! – space school/robotics STEAM Ed program which inspires over 100 plus students every year. Since 2019 she has been the Canadian Lead Principal Investigator with Magnitude .io ExoLab Plants in Space Program.
