Mr. Blevins experiences micro-gravity as part of Northrop Grumman Corporation's Weightless Flights of Discovery Program!
I love science and I love learning! I want to share the passion I have for both with students! One of my goals is to always motivate students to consider science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (S.T.E.M. fields) as a career choice. For insight into why I feel so strongly about this, read
