Projects
Along with Prof. Erin Sullivan, adapting the existing OpenStax Chemistry textbook to align with the CHEM 201/203 curriculum and course needs. Adaptations include:
- Adjusting content to align with course curriclum
- Adding interactive practice problems and simulations
- Adjusting content for EDI and accessibility

More Information
As teaching-stream faculty, I do not directly supervise graduate students, nor do I maintain a standing research group.
If you are a graduate student looking for a committee member or co-supervisor for a related project, please email me (that I can do if it's a good match!)
If you are an undergraduate student looking for a research opportunity, please also email - I am limited in how many 402/502/PURE/etc projects I can take at once, but I usually have both in-lab and out-of-lab (including pedagogical) projects on the go.
