Serving as the Meteorology Event Director helped me become more involved in science outreach. I am thrilled to hear how I challenge students and help them succeed, even at the national level. I also am able to reach students and coaches across the nation using a website I developed. I feel much more connected to the science education community through the Science Olympiad. Also, I have learned how to adapt to changing expectations, requirements, and deadlines, and how to provide additional materials and help to students who want more than the basics of meteorology. I am excited to help students learn the really cool and complicated stuff!
