Hello everyone! My name is Alexandra. After several years as an Instructor and Coordinator, I am thrilled to be a Director of Superior Science. I have just completed HBSc Biology with a concentration in Neuroscience, and I am looking forward to sharing my passion for science with our campers. STEM is such an exciting field and I believe that there is something for everyone to enjoy. I love performing demonstrations that get campers excited about science, and helping campers discover something new! I also enjoy playing the piano, going on bike rides, playing tennis and spending time outside with my friends and family. My hope for the summer is that all campers leave excited and curious about the world around them. See you soon!
