Teaching philosophy
My overarching goal when teaching is to prepare students for their future careers. To that end, I distill the information that students need to know, facilitate an engaging and inclusive learning experience, and include opportunities for students to grow professionally and personally. I have a variety of teaching experience, from introductory labs in the biological sciences to a research-based course focused on predator-prey interactions.
