TEACHING

I'm committed to creating inclusive spaces in the academy, as well as promoting rigorous interdisciplinary research. 

​

At Oberlin College and the University of Chicago, I've had the opportunity to design and teach interdisciplinary classes. In my capacity as a Senior Fellow at the Chicago Center for Teaching, I've led workshops on  inclusive teaching for graduate students in the Humanities Division.
