I have been working in higher education since 2018 facilitating a range of courses including General Psychology, Social Psychology, Lifespan, Abnormal Psychology, and beginning in the Summer of 2024, Academic Cooperatives for Study Abroad. Some of my current academic interests are related to health and environmental psychology, nutritional psychology, experiential learning, and social and cultural psychology with study abroad.

I have worked with students to explore career choices, participate in study abroad, locate scholarships for psychology and study abroad, attend psychological conferences, write resumes or cover letters, learn about internship and research opportunities, save the planet, and find and discuss possible transfer programs of study.
