On the left, you can learn more about my background, interests, and philosophy on education by following the link to my introductory essay. To better understand my undergraduate work in engineering and design at Olin College, along with the deep passion for education that it spawned, view my portfolio for the Grand Challenge Scholars Program. Most of the website consists of the portfolio items that were required for licensure by the state of Minnesota. Each of the ten links includes my personal approach to the area and supporting artifacts that show how I implement it in practice. Finally, a general resume is available at the bottom link. Note that many of the pages under the Standards of Effective Practice simply contain links to the subpages but do not have a comprehensive overview. However, if you follow the links, each of the subpages provides a depth of information to explore within the category.
