I love the opportunity to work with students who are curious about the world and engaged in making it better. I believe that teaching is a process of facilitating student learning and development and challenging students to approach real-world problems in informed and innovative ways. I try to create a learning environment that is safe, engaging, and fun for all students to challenge themselves and exercise control over their education. I enjoy challenging students to re-think their understanding of what history is and why it matters. I don’t mind if students come to the first day of class thinking that history is boring, but I work hard to prove them wrong!
My research and teaching interests include women's and American history, public history, and the intersection of games and learning.
