Just a girl from Oklahoma who love science.
She was the girl who loved math and wanted to know how things worked. She graduated from a tiny private high school in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
They told her she’d never make it in, but Maddie isn’t the type to take no for an answer. She applied to MIT…
…and was accepted. After four years in Boston (Cambridge actually) studying Applied Mathematics and Planetary Science. During that time she interned with NASA (about that project).
Next she did what any reasonable person with an Ivy League degree and insatiable curiosity would do, joined the Navy. As a limited duty officer, Maddie taught Nuclear Physics to officers in the United States Navy. She spent most of that time at the Naval Nuclear Training facility in South Carolina. But she also managed to snag a ride on a submarine for a week, just to see what it was like.
When her contract with the Navy was complete, Maddie returned to Oklahoma. She enrolled in the School of Meteorology at the University of Oklahoma. There she studies global weather patterns over the artic and how they affect world-wide weather. She teaches Intro to Meteorology as a graduate teaching assistant.
In her free time (lol) Maddie quilts, embroiders, writes short stories, runs role playing games, and generally makes stuff.
Her super secret plan to take over the world includes making sure that every kid had a chance to see how math, science, art, technology, and engineering can save the world.
