“Libraries are all about facilitating curiosity! Making independent discovery possible and cultivating community through programming are two of the best parts of my work.”

What do you hope students will take away from your interactions with them?

“An appreciation of the study of mathematics and how it can enrich their lives and understanding of the world.”

“I’m so proud that Lamont Gallery is a teaching gallery. As an extension of the classroom, we aim to compliment and support the learning that happens in the classroom and around the Harkness table. I relish the moments when students visit Lamont Gallery and thoughtfully question and interpret individual artworks and the overarching topics expressed throughout an exhibition.

Regardless of whether a student feels they are an artist or a creative, I always remind them that the gallery is an entry point for discovery and deep questioning. So, when I see connections made and topics explored that applies art as a tool to permeate multiple disciplines they are engaged in, that’s the kind of sweet spot that I find to be so rewarding and transformative as an educator.”

“At a basic level, I want students to walk away from a class with me with a passion–or at least an appreciation–for literature. On an academic level, I hope students leave my course(s) with the ability to articulate why a text matters.”
