I want to pass on what I've learned by teaching technical and problem solving skills. This can be in the classroom, in the field, or in the lab. I aim to create an inclusive, compassionate, and comfortable learning environment, and I aim to reach students of different backgrounds, learning styles, and preferred creative medium.
Throughout my time at UCLA, PSU, and UCSB I've been a teaching assistant in a variety of classroom, field, and lab settings.
I enjoy teaching concepts of deep geologic time and field data-collection methods most, but I'm happy to share any tidbit of information that might help someone else succeed.
I've found learning is definitely a two-way street. If I'm in a teaching role, I believe one of the best ways to learn is to listen to students, be patient, and work hard.

At PSU, I was fortunate enough to work with Emily Loucks, a super enthusiastic student at Penn State who wanted to do field work for her senior thesis. Emily did a great job studying the topography, lithologic structure, and geomorphology of McKittrick Canyon in Guadalupe Mountains National Park, and I want to showcase some of her hard work.
She presented two abstracts at AGU and is now at Western Washington University pursuing her master's degree in geomorphology!
