Introduction

Most of my teaching is focused on advanced undergraduate and graduate-level geophysics and tectonics but I also teach an introductory geology course to non-majors. I believe that a wide breadth of knowledge, strong quantitative skills, and field experiences are essential for success in the modern geosciences field and work to ensure that my students develop these skills both in the classroom and in their research.

Courses

The course I regularly teach are:
GLG 101 - Intro to Geology
GLG 440C - Field Camp                                        
GLG 470 - Physics and Chemistry of the Earth   
GLG 460/560 - Applied Geophysics
GLG 565 - Solid Earth Geophysics
GLG 698 - Seminars
