I have traveled extensively for personal exploration, study abroad, research and service programs. I have experience planning and facilitating international educational programs. I appreciate and understand the value of nurturing a global educational community and incorporating a decolonization lens into my curriculum and trip experiences. One of my greatest joys is traveling with students and exploring culture, ideas, and world with them.
