I am currently a visiting assistant professor at St Mary's College of Maryland, where I have taught a mid-level Genetics course, an upper-level Evolutionary Genetics course, a non-majors course called People, Plants and Food, and a writing-intensive first year seminar on the evidence for evolution. In 2017-2018 I was a visiting assistant professor at Knox College, where I taught an introductory course, Ecology, Evolution, and Biodiversity, an upper-level Genetics course, Plant Physiology and Development, and a research methods course.
In 2016, I recieved Duke's Bass Instructional Fellowship as an instructor of record. For this award, I designed a new course, Genetics of Species Interactions, an advanced seminar. This class drew from ecology, evolution and genetics to look at a wide variety of species interactions at multiple levels.
Also at Duke, I spent four semesters as a teaching assistant for Evolutionary Genetics, a large (>300 students) introductory course. I taught two lab sections and assisted students working on problems in a flipped-classroom format. In both spring and fall of 2016, I also gave guest lectures on the scientific evidence for evolution.
