I am committed to creating inclusive, student-centered learning environments that encourage curiosity, critical thinking, and independent learning. My teaching experience spans science communication, strategic communication, research methods, and media studies through teaching assistantships at the University of Wisconsin–Madison and the University of Kansas.
Across these roles, I have worked with diverse student populations in courses ranging from seminars of fewer than 30 students to lectures enrolling more than 400. My responsibilities have included delivering lectures on research methods and data analysis, leading discussion sections, preparing instructional materials, managing Canvas course sites, and collaborating with faculty to foster active learning and student engagement.
Beyond the classroom, I have mentored undergraduate research projects, advised students on assignments, graded coursework and examinations, and held regular office hours. I strive to create a supportive learning environment where students gain confidence, develop analytical skills, and become more independent learners.
