Teaching Approach
My teaching connects quantitative concepts to applied research questions, with an emphasis on demographic reasoning, statistical interpretation, and reproducible computational work.
Formal teaching and recitation roles span causal modeling, statistics, population studies, and demographic methods. I also provide research supervision and technical mentoring to undergraduate and graduate researchers and have completed pedagogical training through Ohio State's Drake Institute for Teaching and Learning.
