About Me

Hi! I'm Melissa, and welcome to my virtual portfolio. Please look around to learn more about my teaching history, methods, and initiatives. 

Some of my favorite projects are my podcasts and my YouTube videos, so please be sure to check those out!

One of the areas where I'm learning and growing the most is my understanding of diversity, equity, and inclusion and the impacts of racism in STEM education.  Be sure to view my DEI statement for more information on that.

Chemistry for your Life
A podcast helping you understand the chemistry of everyday life. 

I believe that chemistry should be for everyone, not just in the classroom.  I also believe chemistry is best understood as it applies to our own everyday life.  In that vein, I have created a chemistry podcast in collaboration with my co-host (a professional audio engineer) which is open access to the public and relates chemistry ideas to our everyday lives.  This podcast is designed in a manner that allows anyone with any chemistry background to listen and learn about chemistry.  Feel free to browse our episodes, social media, and listener statistics below.

Chemistry for your life is now ranked by Apple Podcasts as the number one chemistry podcast in the United States!
