TEACHING & MENTORING

Throughout my career, I have provided instruction to students at all levels of higher education both as a teaching faculty and as a mentor. I was a full time teaching faculty for 5 years in the Biology Department at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, Eau Claire, WI -- a primarily undergraduate institution with 12,000 students. Although I am currently not in a teaching faculty position at Univ of Louisville, I spend a fair amount of time mentoring students at all levels of education including undergraduates, graduate students, medical students and postdoctoral fellows.
