Communications
A constant theme throughout my work as both a planner and a science educator has been outreach, communication, and teaching. I strive to encourage clear communication, active participation, and inclusion of all stakeholders. This section describes my experience in teaching, training, and presenting. See also Research / Analysis for written reports and journal articles.
Teacher Training Workshops
​
I trained over 1000 K-12 teachers at 18 international and domestic week-long environmental monitoring workshops. The training workshops that I developed and led were hands-on and covered sub-disciplines spanning environmental science, including: soil science, hydrology, atmosphere, land cover and land use, and satellite remote sensing. As a fluent Russian speaker, I led workshops in both Russian and English.​
