TEACHING
CGN4905: Careers in Transportation
I developed and taught this undergraduate online course that provided an overview of the diverse transportation sector. I facilitated meetings with over 30 guest speakers and created interactive assignments related to planning, engineering, and career development.

Future City Engineering Club
I developed and led this after school club for middle school students for three years. I provided content on innovative engineering designs for weekly meetings and managed the completion of five deliverables including a three dimensional scale model of a city. The team won one first place and two second place regional awards in the national Future City competition. Video

Teacher Training
I developed a training for middle and high school teachers on how to integrate transportation topics into STEM related classes. The training included presentations on cutting edge transportation research, a field trip, and hands-on STEM activities.

EVS 3000L: Environmental Science and Humanity Lab
I developed and taught this undergraduate lab for three semesters. Students participated in weekly field trips to meet with natural resource professionals and engaged in hands-on activities teaching field techniques.
​

Science Classroom Teacher
I developed and taught an inquiry-based Physical Science curriculum for middle school students. Weekly hands-on labs and quarterly engineering design projects engaged students in higher-order thinking and independent project development.

I founded and directed a non-profit organization that trained high school students in sustainable community development. Students worked in teams to design and implement real-life projects and present their solutions to community leaders and professionals through a paid summer internship.

I have experience as a formal and nonformal instructor working with all ages (PreK through adults). My expertise is developing hands-on experiences, facilitating strategic dialogues, and inspiring students and participants to explore, learn, and engage. I also have experience developing needs assessments, surveys, and formative and summative evaluations. Below are some examples of my teaching experiences.
