As Executive Director my role is to make sure the Science Factory serves our community with the most engaging, hands-on STEM opportunities possible.

Our team hopes to inspire students of all ages to fall in love with learning, and discover the world around them.  We are passionate about inspiring curiosity, confidence and creativity, and developing Lancaster as a regional STEM leader.

I joined the Science Factory team as Executive Director in 2013, and I am proud that our non-profit science center has doubled its physical size, annual visitation, and staff during that time.

I am motivated by curiosity and fun, and love to see students try new experiences that unleash their creativity.

One of my STEM heroes is Marie Curie, who said “Nothing in life is to be feared; it is only to be understood.”
