Resume/CV

During the fall semester, I usually teach General Ecology and General Zoology. During the spring semester, I teach Introduction to Biology II and alternate between Animal Behavior (in even-numbered years) and Entomology (in odd-numbered years). I also teach a graduate course in Population and Community Ecology as needed, and have done Introduction to Biological Methods on a rotating basis with other professors in the Biology Department.
