What is your advising philosophy? 

My academic philosophy is stitches, not band-aids. In other words, I believe in empowering students as they continue their journeys into adulthood by providing them with the resources that will ultimately help them throughout their lives rather than provide a quick fix.

Class you loved and why? 

My favorite class is a class on curriculum I took with Stu Rankin at the SOE as part of my master's program. During the course we had to design our own curriculum for a high school course from the beginning of the academic year to the end. Complete with academic outcomes, topics, and resources. I enjoyed the class because it forced me to think critically in ways that I'd never had to previously. While also opening my eyes to new perspectives and a greater understanding of where everyone is coming from.

Interests and hobbies:

I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, tabletop board games, video games, sports (basketball, football primarily), watching movies/television shows, and trying new foods.
