Why I Teach What I Teach
I like science because it relates to everyday experiences, and it's fun to show this to students. I love to interact with students from different backgrounds and help them to achieve their educational goals, watch them grow and move from the intro through the more advanced classes. It is inspiring to watch them change their lives for the better by advancing their education.
Something People Might Not Know About Me
When in graduate school, I sang in a Polish folk choir that was a part of the Pomorze Polish Folkdance Ensemble in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.
