Master's Research: Allosteric Regulation of Glycolysis
Using glycolysis as the context, the purpose of this research project was to improve learning outcomes for introductory biology students studying cellular respiration by fostering foundational knowledge about enzymatic regulation. A dynamic interactive application was created that allowed for real-time exploration of proteins and molecules associated with regulating glycolysis.

BioProspector: Ocean Expedition
This project includes a detailed outline of a proposed educational game for middle school students, accompanied by a draft of a planned curriculum. The goal of the game is to teach students science inquiry skills along with a light introduction to ocean science. The key to making a game such as this successful is to cleanly integrate it into classroom activities and ensure teachers have the appropriate resources.
