Doctoral Advising
I welcome advisees and co-advising relationships in my areas of interests and related fields. I have contributed to student understanding of narrative research and also welcome cross-disciplinary co-advising relationships.
Teaching
My teaching spans undergraduate liberal education courses and doctoral-level research-depth courses. As a result, I work with and support a range of students from across disciplines, from first-year students to doctoral students. My courses incorporate multidisciplinary perspectives for advancing intercultural understanding.
