Keliann LaConte
I lead the Lunar and Planetary Institute's informal education efforts, including planning and implementing our Explore program for librarians and after-school providers, devising effective strategies for bringing Earth and space science to the public during our events, and looking toward the future of our informal education efforts. I represent the Planetary Science E/PO Forum on the NASA Science Mission Directorate's Informal Education Working Group. My training is in chemistry, astrobiology, and environmental science, but my passion is for science education. Before joining the Lunar and Planetary Instute in 2009, I worked for a museum, aquariums, and a park.
