• Koshland Museum is a great place for people to come and learn about the science behind the issues. The museum currently has 4 great exhibits (Climate change

  Resilience

  Food and Aging). It is a great place to come and interact with the issues. I enjoy working with the visitors

  having engaging discussions and helping children learn about the science that affects their lives

  As a loaned Executive to the Combined Federal Campaign's Voluntary Campaign Management Office

  I served as an Ambassador on behalf of Secretary of Defense in his role as DoD CFC Chairperson. I was responsible for keeping organizational leadership informed of the campaigns progress as well as assuring all members of the campaign team were trained. I worked with government agencies as well as local

  national and international charities to assure this campaign season was as successful as possible.

  I manage a scientific portfolio focused on understanding hazardous materials and how they persist in the environment. During my time as a scientific program manager I restructured the environmental hazard assessment program to rapidly provide essential information. I initiated joint programs on biological hazards and particulate hazards in the environment with both international and inter-government agencies. \n\nI am very proud of my work and my scientific portfolio. Several scientific programs in this portfolio have received both national and international acclaim including on product being listed as on of R&D Magazine's top inventions of 2013. \n\nI have been a member of a variety of national and international working groups regarding worker safety

  environmental risk analysis and hazard assessments.
