Engaging and Effective Professional Educator

Odis G.

I am a biology graduate from University of St. Thomas in Houston. I completed a degree in biology and leadership studies in 2017 from the University of St. Thomas. I have received academic awards and valuable experience from internships with ExxonMobil and Volunteer Houston as well as conducted biological research at my university. In 2019-2021 I and a group of collogues supported a startup charter school in Houston Texas. I managed marketing, analytical data for student performance and enrollment, as well as instructed online and in-person classes for 40+ students. I instructed and tutored in ELA, math, and science for 1st-3rd grade and was awarded Teacher of The Year in my first year! I have had 5 years of experience managing three science/health/fitness exhibits and a biological lab at two local children museums in Houston. I also have had years of experience as a vision therapist helping patients with a variety of vision and learning disabilities. I love education and science and hope to bring this passion to every learning interaction I have with students. I am excited for the potential to work with you!

I have participated in a scholars research program at NASA Johnson Space Center. I worked with engineers to prepare scientific goals for a future simulated rover mission to Mars. I have working experience in the STEM department at the Children Museum of Houston where I developed, prototype, and installed science experiments in a science lab based on nutrition, physiology, and genetics. I developed over ten experiments ranging from food nutrition to immune response. I have experience in research techniques and practices in an academic, informational, and clinical based setting.
