Areas of Expertise
My research focuses on labor economics, immigration, and policy studies. I am currently working on immigration and intermarriage during the Trump election. Teaching experience includes Principles of Economics, Intermediate Economics, and Applied Economics.
Teaching Philosophy
As an instructor, I believe I should keep classes simple, clear, and easy to follow. In the meantime, I should use what we learned to impact students' real lives. The interactive class activities and environment will motivate students to engage in the class and continue to commit to hard work. As an instructor, I believe I should care for, understand, and support students when they need me.
Outside Interests
Work out, dogs, family and friends, travel.
