​

My primary goal as an educator at the undergraduate level is to encourage students to be curious and question the world around them while empowering them to think critically and holistically about complex environmental and societal problems. It is my responsibility and goal to expand instruction beyond classroom and develop a cohort of students who can use what they learn in their courses throughout their professional/personal lives. At all levels of education, mentorship, and advising, my main aspiration is to instill students with an attitude of curiosity, enthusiasm, and critical thinking needed for the lifelong experience of learning.
