Research Interests

My research interests revolve around teaching pedagogy and curricula. As such, my title here at ND is Associate Teaching Professor, which reflects that my duties are more teaching focused than scientifically oriented. I love teaching and interacting with the students and hope to not only improve my own teaching, but also aid in teaching developments for the entire department as well as the field of chemical engineering.
