  Worked with the founder, head chef, and lead curriculum developer to teach children about nutrition and food science after school with the goal of fostering curiosity and healthy-eating habits using fun, hands-on, and science-based activities. Lesson topics included botany, density, and changes in states of matter - all relating to whole foods, baking, and/or cooking. When applicable, lessons were connected to timely Jewish holidays or themes from the Parsha.
