Welcoming Alexandra Race

This quarter, we are thrilled to have postdoctoral scholar Alexandra Race join us here at the Center! Alexandra is working on two projects: (1) Supporting data analysis on the Our Forests project and; (2) Exploring the role community and citizen science can play in supporting youth and community involvement in various dam removal projects.

Alexandra’s research interests broadly include increasing equity and inclusion in science and field-based education, social and environmental justice approaches to teacher education, and critical sociocultural theory. She received her Ph.D. in Education at UC Santa Cruz, her M.S. in Biological Sciences and Educational Media Design from UC Irvine, and her B.A. in Integrative Biology from U.C. Berkeley. She is excited to work at her fourth UC with such an awesome group!
