Teaching Interests

I enjoy teaching a wide range of psychology courses, from introductory to advanced topics. In particular, I enjoy Mental Health & Psychopathology and Positive Psychology, where students learn about both the challenges people face and the factors that foster resilience and well-being. I strive to create an interactive, reflective classroom environment that encourages critical thinking and empathy.
