Pratt's sculpture garden

Pratt is my intellectual and professional home, the place where most of my teaching, research, and community service happens. Since joining the Pratt faculty in 2007 I have been involved in a great variety of different initiatives across campus, from student-led sustainability improvements to coordination of a report to our accreditation agency.

Below I highlight some of the major areas of my involvement in the Pratt community. If you wish to learn more, I provide links in each section. You can also browse all my blog posts related to the Pratt community.


Green Week-2012-16Sustainability:
Pratt is home to a vibrant community of staff, students, and faculty interested in making our campus and the broader world more sustainable. I have been involved in a variety of sustainability initiatives across campus. I have coordinated events during our annual Green Week that promote sustainable transportation, and given presentations at the Sustainable Crash Course. I contribute courses to our Minor in Sustainability and appear as a regular guest lecturer in the Sustainability Core course. I am also the proud advisor of Envirolutions, Pratt’s student club dedicated to environmental activism.

Curriculum:
I have always been interested in curriculum development, and at Pratt I have been able to consider curriculum at a variety of scales. I have developed new teaching tools in collaboration with graduate students, designed eight new courses, and served on committees related to curriculum at all levels of the institutional hierarchy.


I am also a proud and active member of our faculty union, the United Federation of College Teachers Local 1460.
