Education Experience:
Laboratory assistant, Radar and Satellite Meteorology (AOS 441). Spring 2010, Spring 2009. Designed series of interactive learning assignments using real-world NEXRAD radar and GOES and MODIS satellite data to teach junior and senior undergraduates remote sensing applications.
Lecture assistant, Introduction to Weather and Climate (AOS 100/AOS 101), Fall 2008, Fall 2006. Assisted with homework and test preparation and grading, led test review sessions, lectured when instructor was unavailable.
Delta Certificate for Research, Teaching, and Learning, in progress. Expected completion May 2011. Delta is a University of Wisconsin-Madison program that aims to provide a background in educational methods and philosophy to science and engineering graduate students in order to develop them as well-rounded candidates for faculty positions in the future. Delta students take courses on education philosophy, maintain a presence in a community of like-minded educators, and complete an internship during which they execute a research project on collegiate science education.
CIRTL Network Exchange, April 2010, Texas A&M University. The Center for the Integration of Research, Teaching, and Learning (CIRTL) is a NSF-funded network of six universities devoted to establishing learning communities that foster the development of science and engineering faculty. Every year, a few students from each member institution are selected to spend several days in residence at another institution, where they give seminars on both their science and education research, guest lecture, and meet with faculty and other graduate students to foster collaborations.

Awards and Honors
Wahl Award, April 2010. Outstanding teaching assistant for the University of Wisconsin-Madison Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences for the 2009-2010 academic year.
