Teaching Interests:

Organic chemistry education. In particular, I am interested in assisting students learn a subject they tend to find difficult through a combination of strategies, including classroom lectures with student participation, hands-on demonstrations, and computer-assisted learning technologies. I am also interested in bio-organic chemistry, particularly mechanistic enzymology and protein interactions with small molecule ligands.
