I am currently an Educator in Formal Programs at Adler Planetarium & Astronomy Museum in Chicago, IL.
I am also the Education/Outreach Coordinator for the Microwave Anisotropy Probe (MAP), a NASA Satellite Mission.
In case you knew me before 8/18/01, you might notice I have a new last name! This is because I recently married Jake Benjamin Bartolone (PU '99, U. Chicago '01) and have sided with tradition and taken his last name. It's longer, and hard for others to spell, but it comes a letter earlier in the alphabet :)
I recently graduated with Honors from Princeton University with an A.B. in Astrophysical Sciences and a certificate in the Program of Teacher Preparation. I graduated in Spring of 1999, but finished my teaching certificate the following fall by student teaching for a semester.
Prior to my time here at Princeton, I spent the first 18 years of my life growing up in Baltimore, Md where I attended and graduated cum laude from The Bryn Mawr School in Baltimore.
As if all this wasn't enough to keep me busy I spent a great deal of
time dancing (ballet, jazz, modern and tap) and have danced with a
student
run group called BodyHype
at Princeton.
I also performed with student groups
