I believe in two mantras: “Be the Difference” and “Cura Personalis.” These two beliefs, one challenging students to maximize their capabilities both in their lives and their communities and the other focusing on care for the whole person, are the guiding lights to how I approach teaching and my classroom environments.
This is the bedrock of designing the curriculum for my classes. This page offers a jumping-off point for my reflections, evaluations, and sharing of the curriculum I’ve created and courses I’ve taught in my time in the collegiate setting. I’ve also taught several courses at the high school level and those materials can be provided upon request.
