My teaching focus has always been making physics accessible to all levels of student. I enjoy helping students see the connection between ideas and physical reality. I have published a textbook that situates the evolution of physics in a historical context while also helping students to connect physics to their lived experience, apply mathematical models, and problem solve.

My teaching focus has always been making physics accessible to all levels of student. I enjoy helping students see the connection between ideas and physical reality. I have published a textbook that situates the evolution of physics in a historical context while also helping students to connect physics to their lived experience, apply mathematical models, and problem solve.
I have taught in both public and private schools primarily at a high school level but also at the college level, both as part of joint high school/college programs and as an adjunct professor in the state university system. I have taught AP level classes (Physics 1, 2, and C). I am comfortable doing calculus based physics.
In terms of credentials: I was originally an engineer working for NASA. I have undergraduate and graduate degrees from an ivy league school. I am a certified public school teacher with over 30 years experience as a physics teacher. I have worked as an AP Reader in physics for Collegeboard.
