Teaching
Through group discussions, hands-on activities, and one-on-one interactions students get to actively participate in their learning.Through my courses, students will develop critical thinking skills, evaluate scientific evidence, and explore their interests in biology. Through in-class activities, field trips and in-class experiments, and lectures, students will develop skills that prepare them for careers in biology and non-STEM fields.
In my courses students develop experiences in critical thinking, reading and critiquing the scientific literature, and apply their knowledge to real-world scenarios. In addition, students gain experiences conducting research by developing and conducting experiments in the field through in-class research experiments and field trips.

Mentoring
Through my research program, I am thrilled to provide students with opportunities to conduct independent research projects and develop skills in science. My research program involves fieldwork, processing data in the lab, and behavioral assessments. I welcome students at all stages in their careers and interests! There are opportunities to assist with ongoing research projects or to develop your own research project. Check out all the incredible work being done here
