My Teaching Philosophy

My teaching philosophy is the belief that all students can be successful and find their passion with support and guidance. My goal is to empower students with tools and resources to overcome barriers and roadblock students may have faced or will face along your educational and career journey. I encourage student contributions to our campus community to seek effective change, social justice and anti-racism thinking and behavior. My purpose is to help students become aware of their talents, skills and values to become lifelong learners who seek truth and justice through their education.
