Teaching
I’ve taught several undergraduate courses as an Instructor of Record and a Teaching Assistant (TA). I teach topics at the intersection of research and policy, including (but not limited to) climate and conflict, energy, freshwater issues, Indigenous approaches (e.g., Nature-based Solutions), and environmental justice. I am also advising several undergraduate theses! Please browse through my attached syllabi and sample PPT lectures!
