My first forays into any sort of a teaching role occurred when I became a tutor for fellow undergraduate students at Western Oregon University. Later, I was a team leader for WOU's Peer-led Team Learning (PLTL) program, which entailed leading weekly two-hour workshops with students in introductory biology courses. These early experiences proved very useful preparation for my teaching responsibilities in graduate school.
I taught nearly every term as a graduate student at Oregon State University. Sharing my enthusiasm for biology with others is a great experience, particularly if it can kindle scientific interest in students. My desire to enhance my teaching skill set led me to enroll in OSU's Graduate Certificate in College and University Teaching program, which I completed in 2014.
At the University of Maine, I interact with students through the NSF Research Traineeship (NRT) Conservation Science & Practice program as well as students involved in the Center for Research on Sustainable Forests. I am currently developing a series of technical writing workshops for STEM graduate students.
