Alex has been an educator since she started tutoring in high school, and after studying Physics and Astronomy at Vassar, she realized that she wanted to spend her life teaching about the wonders of the universe. She has taught all over the world both in classrooms and in other educational spaces, all while researching Astronomy alongside her teaching. She specifically researched exoplanet detection and the habitability of Jupiter’s moons at both Vassar and MIT. While she isn’t looking through telescopes or processing data, Alex is teaching at Meridian Academy, where she has her dream job as a Math, Science, and Technology teacher. In addition to Astronomy, Alex teaches a variety of STEM topics, including Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Calculus, Life Science, Physics, Coding in Python and Scratch, and of course, Astronomy.
