Teaching
In 2018, I was inducted into the University of Oregon's Provost's Teaching Academy following my participation in the Teaching Engagement Program's Communities for Accelerated Impact in Teaching (CAIT), focusing on Difference, Inequality and Agency.
In 2015, I was honored to be recognized as Teacher of the Year by the students in the Department of Planning, Public Policy and Management.
- Prior to joining the faculty at UO, I spent more than a decade recruiting, training and managing volunteers and staff for a host of organizations. I have also worked with students in both classroom and online environments.
