Cheryl earned her first doctoral degree in mechanical engineering. She had been an engineering faculty in universities in Australia and Singapore for a few years. Throughout her teaching and research, she started to develop a strong interest in human development especially in the aspects of learning and education. While teaching robotics to university students as an associate professor in mechanical engineering, Cheryl enrolled a part time bachelor degree program in Early Childhood Education. As the interest in learning and education grows, part time involvement seemed not enough. Cheryl resigned and joined the Educational Psychology Department as a Ph.D. Student in Jan. 2006. Her current research interests include Engineering Education Measurement, Vertical Scaling and Early Childhood STEM Education.
