Research interests:

Interested in developing project-based lab courses that provide avenues for undergrads to engage in publishable scientific research (CUREs). Currently invested with developing an undergraduate lab course in which students use CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology to generate new alleles in model organisms that can be used by the research community.

Teaching:

BIOL 1302 - Intro Bio II
BIOL 3303 – Evolution
BIOL 4380 - Gene Editing Lab
BIOL 4110 - Biochem Lab
