In my classes, I ask my students to interact with each other and also with people outside the class. In these interactions, students will be challenged to think more deeply and from other perspectives, they will learn actively by engaging in individual and group tasks, and they will communicate with others authentically in speaking and writing. In my teaching, Cascadia's four learning outcomes are not isolated but are strongly connected with each other.

Community & Professional Engagement
In the local community, I have been a volunteer in the Northshore School District through Bothell High School Music Boosters and PTSAs, especially in the area of family and community engagement.
Hobbies
Outdoor activities, such as canoeing, camping, hiking, gardening, and walking. You'll also find me playing pickleball a couple times a week. I love to experience delicious food and cuisines from around the world with new and old friends. Traveling is also one of my favorite activities, whether it's a short road trip or to a distant country. There is so much to learn and experience!
