Teaching
My main teaching specialties include International Economics (primarily macroeconomics and finance) and Data Analysis. I have designed or re-imagined a number of courses, creating written and video materials in the process. I also enjoy teaching economic principles and educating consumers about personal finance.
I am a firm believer that economics must be used to explain real–world events, and structure my courses with that goal in mind. I have extensive experience and interest in serving first–generation and other nontraditional students, as well as English–language learners and those for whom the opportunity to attend college will make a major impact in their lives.
My data analysis materials are located on GitHub.
My macroeconomics videos are arranged by course (with readings) and are also on YouTube.
