“Senior Scientist and Senior Education Manager at the American Museum of Natural History: A non-traditional research and outreach path”

The American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) is a unique academic and education environment which hosts large numbers of domestic and international tourists as well as public school students from NYC and the metro area throughout the year. As a senior scientist and senior education manager at AMNH I am in a unique position to develop and disseminate scientific material to a plethora of visitors. In this talk I will highlight a number of initiatives that AMNH is involved in that promote equity and inclusion in STEM fields through unique informal education activities.
