My favorite academic accomplishment since I enrolled as a Ph.D. student in Science Education has been working in a research team with one of my faculty—Dr. Valarie Akerson—on the Nature of Science and getting to know science from another lens. Also, by participating in the Saturday Science Program, I not only enhance my passion for science education but also explore ways to make Science more fun.

Bloomington is one of the best campus towns in United States. Regardless of where you live in the city, your drive to work won’t be longer than about 15 minutes. The green terrain of the city, and nearby state park and national forest are wonderful attractions for a nature lover. Bloomington has a diverse set of cuisines, great music schools with lots of shows, and many trails for walking and biking.
