Teaching/Scientific Interests
I teach Cell and Molecular Biology (BB 314) and Scientific Theory and Practice (BB 317). As an instructor, I have a strong interest in preparing students for a variety of careers in the life sciences and supporting life-long learning in STEM. Specifically, I am interested in using and creating an engaging classroom using evidence-based techniques that promote student learning. My favorite area of biology is cell biology, specifically vesicle trafficking in the endomembrane system as that is where I focused in my Ph. D work.
Advising
I also have a role as an academic and pre-medical advisor in Biochemistry. I enjoy conversations and getting to know students over their time at OSU and connecting again after they go on to life beyond OSU.
