In my classroom, both what we are learning and how we are learning matters. My first priority is to cultivate a democratic community where students become active participants in the learning process. I design fully accessible courses that prioritize improvement, engaging diverse perspectives, and teaching students to think like historians. My goal is that any course I teach will be part of a student’s lifelong journey of becoming a deep thinker and responsible citizen.
