Position details
Final presentation
I am a physics education major and math minor at Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana and when I graduate I plan on being a high school physics and math teacher. I am really looking forward to spending my summer in D.C. and it will be a great experience for all of us.
My chapter of SPS is very active at Ball State. We host several events at the university each year where we give children the opportunity to learn science in a fun environment, and we do our outreach demos in the community as well. I really enjoy doing this outreach not only to spread knowledge of science, but also because it is a growing experience as a future teacher. Outside of school I enjoy music, Netflix, hanging out with my friends and my family and my girlfriend and going home to see my dog.
