Academics

I have taken a wide range of classes in my undergraduate at Hobart and William Smith Colleges. Below is a short description of a few of the courses that have stood out to me.

Leadership Theory

This class discussed the various aspects of leadership and invited discussion on complex topics such as values, morals, and accountability. I explored who I am as a leader and created a deeper understanding as to why I make the leadership decisions that I do. 

Teaching Children with Disabilities

This class explored many different types of disabilities and their different facets. The class discussed accommodations, IEPs, and social beliefs around those with disabilities. I built a personal toolkit of assistive technology and ideas for accommodations. I got to learn from my classmates as well as visiting speakers about what it is like to go through the world with a disability.

Environmental Change in the Indigenous World

This class was an introduction to the intersection between environmental studies and indigenous studies. I completed a semester long research project about how indigenous storytelling relates to traditional ecological knowledge, a project that fascinated me and made me excited.
