Justin Keller grew up in North Dakota where he enjoyed the outdoors. He originally studied wildlife biology in college but realized he wanted to become a teacher. Justin enjoys hobbies like photography, backpacking, hunting and cooking. He also loves teaching Boy Scouts about these topics. As a teacher, his goals are to use hands-on learning of science, have students design their own year-long research projects, and show students how science can be applied beyond high school.
