Ms. Amy Schauer

Director, Science Instructional Coordinator

After completing her B.S. at the University of Tennessee in Wildlife and Fisheries Science and her M.S. in Forestry and Natural Resources at the University of Georgia, Amy went to the University of Alaska to study seabird ecology in the Bering and Chukchi Seas. Her work in oceanography took her to waters around the former USSR (Siberia), Greenland, and Antarctica - among the coldest and most productive oceans on Earth. Amy has also worked as a park naturalist/ranger, reference librarian and artist. She brings all this together at CREST, working with teachers and students to develop their understanding of the phenomena in the world around them through the practices and core ideas of science. Amy lives in West Linn with her husband, Jay, and their twins, Liam and Benjamin. When not at CREST, she’s likely to be outdoors with her family, gardening, birding, backpacking/hiking, or playing her guitar.

¡Hablo un poquito de español!  
 
 Danielle Grenier is a West Linn High School alumna who went off to pursue environmental studies and biology at Linfield College in McMinnville, Oregon. In the heart of wine country Danielle studied bacterial communities in vineyards and it inspired her love of microbial ecology. Her other specialty was calculating greenhouse gas emissions for Linfield as part of the American College & University Presidents Climate Commitment. As a CREST Program Coordinator Danielle supports students as they develop research and engineering projects for district, state, and international competitions. She will tell anyone who asks that ISEF is one of the greatest opportunities an aspiring engineer or scientist could ever have! When she's not in the lab you can find Danielle outside walking her golden retriever, Parker Brown, eating at the food carts in downtown, or camping in Central Oregon.
