Obtained a BS in Chemistry from St. Lawrence University, a PhD from the University at Buffalo with a concentration on Organic Chemistry and methodology development. Complete a post-doctoral position at the University of Delaware in the Chemical Engineering department, focusing on the development of novel self-healing polymers. Teaching experience in General Chemistry, lecture and lab, as well as Organic Chemistry. Teaching experience at multiple levels, community college, small private college, and large institutions like Syracuse University.

Teaching primarily large introductory lecture courses, I am interested in developing ways to interact with and engage all students in the learning process. I also understand the learning is not limited to the classroom so I have worked on developing content that can be accessed on demand for students to work on the material, outside of class, on their own pace.

I primarily teach introductory General Chemistry sequence at Syracuse. I enjoy teaching General Chemistry because I often get to work with students in their first college science course, which can be daunting for many students. I am there to help and work with those students to show them that college level science, chemistry in particular, is not impossible!
