I moved to Vermont to pursue a master’s degree; I completed my studies in the UVM Field Naturalist Program in 2015. My mission as a teacher (and learner) centers on building, questioning, studying, and reframing our relationships with one another and with the natural world. As a lecturer in Rubenstein, I teach Natural and Cultural History of Vermont (NR 9) for transfer students and lead a discussion section for Race and Culture in Natural Resources (NR 6). I also supervise interns pursuing their K-12 teaching license in the Secondary Education Department.
