Mrs. Forbes earned her Bachelor's of Science in Bacteriology from University
of Wisconsin-Madison in 1988, spent 2.5 years doing cancer research on the UW
campus, and then went to Abbott Laboratories to be a research scientist.
After being a molecular biologist in Pharmaceutical Research & Development
at Abbott Labs for 8+ yrs, and being a cell biologist in Biotechnology in
Madison, WI for a short time, she decided to leave the big city, marry the
man she fell in love with, and move to rural Michigan.
This led to a change in careers, a Certification in Biology &
Math, and a Masters of Education from Ferris State University. She taught at
Morley Stanwood High for 5 years, and now she is at the MSTC guiding math
and science students.
"Teaching is something I love just as much as being a scientist - I'm truly
blessed to have found another awesome & fun career!"
For all to be 'active learners'. "Don't just sit there - DO SOMETHING!"
And yes . . you WILL use this stuff in real life!
