Dion is a Wildlife Biologist and Science Educator with over 20 years of experience in K-12 education spanning New York independent schools and museum education. During her decade-plus tenure at the American Museum of Natural History, she developed workshops and courses partnering with scientists and experts, including a transformative collaboration with a teaching artist that led students to create science comic strips as their capstone project. This experience established illustration and visual storytelling as core elements of her STEM teaching practice. She now works as a freelance educational consultant, reviewing science content and helping schools and teachers stay current with content and education practices.
