In the Fall of 2018, I've participated in the Future Faculty Teaching Institute, a 14-week certified training program by USC's Center for Excellence in Teaching, intended to prepare graduate students with training in pedagogy, inclusiveness, and class design for their future work as faculty members.
Philosophical outreach:
I chaired the student organization team of the GPS California in 2018 and co-organized it in 2019. The GPS California is an undergraduate workshop run by USC graduate students and faculty aimed at building a more inclusive philosophical community.
During graduate school, I've volunteered for the LA chapter of the Corrupt The Youth program, hosted by the Los Angeles LGBT Center, where I co-taught discussion sections on philosophy's 'big questions'.
