Teaching Philosophy
As an alum of a liberal arts college, I deeply value undergraduate education. I strive to create an inclusive and equitable classroom environment with high expectations for student growth. I mix hands-on laboratory and field activities with lectures and seminars to provide students with a variety of ways to absorb and apply new knowledge. It is my goal for all students in my classrooms to develop a greater appreciation for the Earth regardless of their educational or career aspirations.
