Teaching

As an educator with ten years of experience, I consistently draw on real-world examples to emphasize the tangible impact sociology can offer. At the same time, I work with students to develop skills that can be applied to future academic and professional endeavors. I strive to equip my students with the ability to think critically, connect sociological concepts to their lived experiences, and build practical professional skills.

I have taught at Wesleyan University and served as a Teaching Fellow at Yale University. I was appointed as a visiting instructor for the Wesleyan Sociology Department to design and teach a sociology of family course titled The Rise and Fall of the Nuclear Family. As a teaching fellow at Yale, I have led discussion sections for undergraduate and graduate students in quantitative methods courses and mentored undergraduates in the senior thesis course.

I am prepared to teach undergraduate and graduate level courses including Introduction to Sociology; Sociology of Race and Ethnicity; Sociology of Gender; Sociology of Family; Sociology of Education; and Sociology of Sexualities; as well as sociological methods courses such as Research Methods and Qualitative Methods. Given my teaching background and M.A. in Statistics and Data Science, I can also teach classes on Statistics including Introduction to Statistics and Data Analysis in R courses.
