Ms. Moran

 
I received my B.A in Biology from Fresno State University and my M.S in Biology from Clemson University. I have been teaching for close to three decades.  Most of my teaching experience has been in California where I taught both middle and high school science.  At the high school level, I have taught Biology, Anatomy & Physiology, Medical Terminology, Health Occupations and Project Lead the Way’s (PLTW) Biomedical Science program.
 
In June of 2021, my family and I moved to New Hampshire.  When the CTE Biotechnology/Biomedical Sciences position became available, I jumped at the opportunity.  I love working with students, teaching them how to use PCR and gel electrophoresis to manipulate DNA, stain microorganisms and perform gene transformation.  I am excited for the Biotechnology II students to be partnering with ARMI’s (Advanced Regenerative Manufacturing Institute) Biotrek program.  This is an amazing opportunity to expose students to a real-world challenge, use critical thinking skills to solve the challenge,  interact with industry advisors and learn different professions in advanced manufacturing and technology sectors.
