My teaching philosophy is to make science accessible to all. Biology is not about memorizing abstract terms, it’s about solving real-world problems, and all students, regardless of background, should have the opportunity to obtain the knowledge, skills, and tools to become valued problem-solvers in their communities.

 

I typically teach the following classes:

• Ecology (including Urban Ecology)

• Herpetology

• Biostatistics

• Graduate Seminars

​

Spring 2025 Courses:

• BIOL 421 - Herpetology

• Office Hours: Thursdays 2-4 pm (HSCI 142)
