TEACHING PHILOSOPHY

I enjoy teaching a range of courses, from an undergraduate course that serves as an introduction to behavior genetics, to hands-on data analysis for human genetics graduate students. Students in my class and lab should expect an inclusive classroom where learning occurs through a combination of lectures and active learning, including large and small group discussions. My teaching philosophy, while still developing, is inspired by my own educational experiences. I feel deeply indebted to the teachers throughout my education who made me excited to learn and generously gave of their time to support my academic experience, such as my high school calculus teacher who stayed late to prepare us and drive us 8 hours (each way!) for math competitions. The extra time and effort my teachers gave to me meant the world - and I am passionate about giving back that time to future students in my classes.​​
