She holds a B.A. in Biology from UC Santa Barbara and a Ph.D. in Geology from UC Davis where she studied mollusk evolution and growth patterns with Dr. Geerat Vermeij. She currently studies the chemistry of shells to reconstruct environmental conditions along the California coast, and the effects of ocean acidification on marine invertebrates. She ran an NSF GK-12 program from 2011-2014 at Bodega Marine Laboratory where she facilitated authentic research projects with middle and high school students. She partners with scientists and educators across the country to develop and test new methods for teaching and learning about the nature and process of science and global change.
