As a graudate student I was a held a postion as a Graudate Research Assistant for the Geotechnical Lab.

Teaching Style

I am very hands on. I like to first show how a problem is done, discuss the purpose of each step and then the student work the problem. From there I prefer to have students work problems and ask questions as they come up. After each problem is complete I then review the problem with the student.

My Hobbies

I enjoy outdoor activites such as hiking, mountain biking and baseball.
