It was during Professor Lebeau鈥檚 doctoral work at the University of North Carolina that she discovered her passion for teaching undergraduate students. She was fortunate to have the opportunity to serve as a chemistry lecturer during her post-doctoral fellowship at Johns Hopkins University in 1998. By then, she knew teaching chemistry was a career that would bring a lot of satisfaction.
Lebeau spent the first 16 years of her career at Central Michigan University, teaching both undergraduate and graduate students. She has published the results of her research in professional journals with some of her research students as coauthors.

Although Lebeau enjoyed the one-on-one mentoring relationship she had with her lab students, she feels inspired by undergraduate students in the classroom. She has conducted research in the area of chemical education and continues to strive to put the best learning practices into action in the classroom to achieve great student learning outcomes. She joined the faculty at 花椒直播 in 2016 and hopes her tenure will allow her to inspire and train the next generation of science students.
