What do you hope students will take away from your interactions with them?
“Their passions and interests truly matter, and those are the things that will take them far– not just in the classroom, not just at Exeter, but throughout their whole lives. I hope to show students that their unique passions and perspectives are not just valuable, but powerful, too.”

“Science has allowed me to learn how things work. It’s served as a vehicle for my own curiosity about people, knowledge, phenomena, the world, and universe. This curiosity has enabled me to get to know others, including my students and colleagues.”

“Learning new languages is challenging and exciting. As a language and literature instructor, I’m lucky to be at the forefront of students’ world discovery and exploration. Finding sparkles in students’ eyes as they learn about cultures other than their own is priceless.”
