With over a decade of experience in the classroom, teaching many subjects to a variety of grade levels, I have come to think of myself more than an instructor in a particular content area.

I am an educator.

That being said, my areas of teaching focus are literature, history, and philosophy. I’ve taught courses in these subject areas to students of all ages, from sixth-graders to continuing education adults.

My teaching philosophy is community-minded and collaborative, seeking to empower students to understand their individual academic journeys in the context of the big questions that spark curiosity and move the world.

I’ve listed “Courses Taught” below.
