Teaching
Currently I teach both in-person and online algebra-based mechanics, mainly serving the pre-health student population. I also run the UF Physics TA Training program.
Advising
I am currently serving as a Physics Undergraduate Advisor. (Please contact advising@phys.ufl.edu with any advising questions.)
Outreach
I oversee the outreach project UF PhysTube, a collaboration of students, faculty, and staff to make online videos about any- and everything related to physics. (www.youtube.com/ufphysics)
