Philosophy
All students are capable of learning in demanding settings with high academic expectations. We must appreciate the lived experiences that our students bring with them into the learning environment and utilize those experiences as a gateway to engage the learner with the course content. My vocation as an educator is to help students become change agents, knowledge producers, and reflective practitioners committed to improving teaching, learning, and research in urban and other diverse settings.
