Hello,

a bit about me:

​I'm a Lecturer and the Undergraduate Coordinator for the School of Library and Information Science at the University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg, Mississippi.

 

My teaching philosophy has always been grounded in the idea of creating a stimulating and comfortable learning environment, in which students at all cognitive levels feel confident in their ability to think critically and in a scholarly manner. Too often, I have encountered students who have not yet embraced the ideals of the university as a place for open inquiry, debate and truth-seeking. I have found that by simply creating an interesting and welcoming environment, students are much more willing to become active participants in their education.

 

In my spare time, I enjoy composing music, swimming and spending time with my wife and son.
