I earned my undergraduate degree in biochemistry at Brown University and my Ph.D. in immunology at the University of California, Berkeley. I have been teaching both introductory and advanced biology courses at the University of Maryland, College Park for over 10 years. For fun I enjoy reading science fiction, doing crossword puzzles, swing and ballroom dancing, and playing ultimate frisbee.... I try to bring a broad perspective to my teaching. If one approach doesn't click, then another might. I also try to make personal connections between my students and the material.

I graduated from Yale University with a double major in Environmental Studies and International Studies, and I love the way science and real-world issues can interact. Part of my interest in the environment comes from my love...

It's a skill I use both in my academic life, as well as professionally; as a stage manager, it is often my job to take in complicated and conflicting pieces of information (the blocking, a quick change in costumes, changes in a script) and quickly organize that information so that I can convey it to someone else. I enjoy and excel at condensing and re-communicating facts or tasks, so that they...

What I value far more is not just telling students the answers to their problems, but providing them with the resources and strategies to arrive at the correct answer themselves. Not only does this empower students, but it also gives them a framework to understand and tackle more complex problems outside of tutoring. Additionally, I see no value in...
