Van Andel Education Institute
We filmed this week’s show at the Van Andel Education Institute (VAEI) in Grand Rapids. The VAEI offers educational programs for elementary and middle school students interested in science. They are dedicated to advancing and promoting science education and increasing the number of students who pursue careers in science or science-related fields.
If your child has a love for science and is interested in more information on the various programs offered at the Institute, visit www.vai.org/education.aspx
I’ve been a part of the WOOD TV8 team since 2005. As a producer, I work side by side with Maranda making things happen behind the scenes. I coordinate Maranda’s Park Parties each summer and work on various station projects through out the year. I also serve as the producer of Maranda’s weekly half-hour show, Where You Live. My blog inspirations come from stories on the job and my life as a busy mom of a three year old daughter.
