Cheryl L. Genet, Ph.D. earned her bachelor’s in Psychology and her master’s and doctoral degrees in Interdisciplinary Science and Theology. She focuses her current research on scientific paradigms, cosmological stories, interfaith relations, and understanding our emerging global community. She taught at Central Arizona College and at California Polytechnic State University Osher Institute for Life-Long Learning. Currently she teaches Philosophy and World Religions at Cuesta College (since 2007). She began teaching online at Cuesta in 2012, having completed five online teaching units through California Community College's "At One" training. 

She served for many years as the Managing Editor of the Collins Foundation Press, the publishing division of the non-profit Collins Educational Foundation, which supports efforts towards a sustainable future for ourselves and our planet. In this capacity she has convened conferences and published conference books that address our emerging science story of how we came to be, and how this story can inform us about our human nature, our social and spiritual propensities, our driving curiosity and creativity, and the future we can envision for our rare and beautiful planet Earth. 

Genet co-chaired and co-edited three conferences and resulting books in the CFP/CEF Humanity Conference and Book Series: Evolution of Religion: Studies Theories, and Critiques, The Evolutionary Epic: Science's Story and Humanity's Response, and Science, Wisdom, and the Future: Humanity’s Quest for a Flourishing Earth. She is also the director of the Science and Humanities Program for the Collins Educational Foundation (CEF). She currently serves on the Board of Advisors for the Planet Project.

She is an avid and long time "scrapbooker," and devotes free time to creatively archiving photos and family memories. Since she is the mother of 3, grandmother of 11, a great grandmother of 2 (so far), there are plenty of memories to preserve! 

Cheryl lived for 20 years near Santa Margarita Lake in the Central Coast area of California, and wintered on the leeward coast of Oahu in Hawaii, but recently moved with her husband to Payson, Arizona to be closer to their families.
