Hello everyone!

I am a communication studies educator, interested particularly in the art of teaching adult learners through playful practices. I began my journey into higher education as a Cabrillo student many years ago and was inspired by my communication studies teacher to explore the teaching process and find ways to invite mutual creation of knowledge. As an instructor, I believe in approaching the teaching experience as a teacher-student: I am always learning from those around me—we each contribute to the learning process.
