Summary
Shanice Bailey is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow and environmental learning designer who translates climate and ocean science into engaging curricula, workshops, and e-learning experiences. With eight years of experience spanning PhD-level physical oceanography research at Columbia’s Lamont‑Doherty Earth Observatory and applied education roles, she bridges rigorous science and accessible teaching. She has designed and delivered programs from afterschool Python-for-climate courses to public Discovery Walks, making computational and ecological concepts tangible for diverse audiences. Based in New York, her work blends field research, data-driven modeling, and instructional design to support stewardship and climate literacy. Less obvious: she pairs deep oceanographic expertise with hands-on youth mentorship and community market programs, demonstrating a rare mix of technical, pedagogical, and community engagement skills.
