Pedagogy
“I am committed to involving students in participatory, politically engaged research and believe deeply in the transformative potential of experiential learning. My trajectory as an educator began in popular and adult education settings, and I strive to bring these sensibilities into the university classroom, using interactive techniques that value and build upon students’ life experience, fostering horizontal relationships of shared responsibility, and creating opportunities for students to problem-solve real world issues.”
