BACKGROUND
Ms. Hillary Magier is a passionate science educator from St. Louis, Missouri. She began her career teaching biology in Missouri and Massachusetts schools. She comes to NEIA with hopes to develop more inquisitive minds that are motivated to understand their surroundings. By giving students the tools they need to investigate and experiment with the world around them, we can shape their natural curiosity into a passion that follows them through life. Outside of school, Ms. Magier enjoys learning Classical Romantic-era piano pieces, playing Nintendo video games, and traveling to Pokémon events with her husband.
