...background as a liberal arts student turned pre-med. I attended Wesleyan University and then decided after college to pursue medicine, completing a one year post-baccalaureate premedical program at Bryn Mawr College.

...ideas and finding ways to explain them, which I learned about myself during graduate school. I realized that the energy I gained from moments of discovery in the lab paled in comparison to the excitement of catalyzing eureka moments with my students. After teaching science classes at both the graduate and undergraduate level, I've gravitated towards teaching material that conveys the broad skills that allow students to understand the scientific method and use it to...
