I am extremely passionate about teaching: in the classroom, as a scientific mentor to graduate and undergraduate students, and through science outreach.

For those interested in teaching opportunities in the Bay Area, check out Mt. Tamalpais College, located in the San Quentin Rehabilitation Center. I taught Social Psychology in Spring 2025, and could not recommend it enough. They are always looking for volunteers!
For students interested in graduate school, I recommend the Yale Psychology Bootcamp, which has recorded sessions available online. I was a speaker in the "How to Get Experience in Research Psychology" panel in 2022.
