Sandra Arango-Caro: From Scout to Scientist

As Senior Education Researcher and Lead of the Education Technology Program, Sandra
Arango-Caro’s work at the Danforth Center is a compelling blend of teaching, research, and
plant science, and the path she took to get here is just as inspiring as the work itself.

At age 12, Sandra joined the Colombian Association of Girl Scouts, and her dual interest in teaching and the natural sciences was born. She explored the great outdoors on hikes and camping trips and became fascinated by nature.
