In Spring 2024, I had the chance to be adjunct faculty in the Department of Botany at Connecticut College. I designed and served as instructor of record for the course:

• Spring 2024: Plant Ecology (Lecture and Lab; Connecticut College BOT 315)

At Yale, I have been a Teaching Fellow for undergraduate and graduate level courses:

• Spring 2025: Science for Policy and Practice (ENV 697)

• Fall 2024: Ecosystem Measurements for Conservation and Restoration (E&EB 341)

• Spring 2024: Environmental Data Science in R (ENV 730)

• Spring 2023, Fall 2023: Methane in Global Climate Disruption (ENV 623)

• Fall 2022: Forest Dynamics (EVST 360/ENV 660)

• Fall 2021: Watershed Cycles and Processes (ENV 724)

I am always looking to incorporate inclusive and evidence-based pedagogical approaches in my teaching, and I am currently completing a Certificate of College Teaching Preparation through the Poorvu Center for Teaching and Learning.

I have also developed some open-source resources for teaching programming in R and computational skills in ecology, which you can access on my Github.

At Boston University I had the opportunity to supervise, train, and mentor several undergraduate and high school students including through the RISE and GROW programs.

At Yale, I have worked with undergraduate students as an independent study instructor through Earth and Planetary Sciences, an internship advisor in Ecology & Evolutionary Biology and Chemical & Environmental Engineering, and a senior thesis advisor in the School of the Environment. 

I have also had the opportunity to work with and mentor amazing students through programs including the Ingalls Field Ecology Program, the Harvard Forest REU, the Pathways to Science Program and the National Student Leadership Conference.

I am currently a member of the Peabody Museum Speakers Bureau, an outreach lecture program that provides training in public science communication and offers presentations to the greater New Haven community. I also do several K-12 classroom visits each semester through the Skype a Scientist program.

I am currently working with Yale's Center for Collaborative Arts and Media to develop data sonification tools and media pieces for environmental data communication-- stay tuned for more on this soon!
