On behalf of the Board of Directors for the Santa Maria Valley Discovery Museum, I am excited to welcome Amy Iliff to the Santa Maria Valley Discovery Museum! As our new Operations Coordinator, Amy will be supervising our new Discovery Navigator team and establishing educational opportunities here at the museum.

Amy is excited to work at the Discovery Museum. As a child, Amy visited the original location and she brought her son to the current location when he was younger. Amy is a former teacher who enjoys teaching and encouraging young learners to expand their creative minds. Her favorite part of the museum is the Creation Station and the Reading Tree. Amy would like every child to experience the MAGIC here at the museum.

One of Amy's first projects will be the
