"If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough" ~ Einstein
Teaching
Teaching has been an important part of my experience as a graduate student. I won the Excellence in Teaching Award in recognition of my teaching at Cornell. I have designed two undergraduate courses: Introduction to Sociology and Introduction to Economic Sociology. The focus in the Introduction to Sociology course was on introducing students to central sociological concepts and overviewing the substantive areas of sociological research. In Introduction to Economic Sociology, I emphasized the important theoretical and empirical contributions to understanding economic phenomena by economic sociology and discussing these contributions in relation to current economic events.
Designing and teaching these courses both broadened and deepened my knowledge of the field of sociology.
