Experience
University of Illinois Springfield
Adjunct Faculty
As an adjunct faculty, I have taught a wide variety of Biology lectures and lab sections as well as labs for the Capitol Honors Program over the last few years. Courses range from 100-level courses for non-science majors, to Human Physiology for CLS majors, to upper level biology laboratories.
Lincoln Land Community College
Adjunct Instructor
I taught Biology courses mostly at the Regional Educational Center in Jacksonville and occasionally on main campus in Springfield. The main course I taught is Human Anatomy and Physiology I and II lectures and labs (Bio 175/176). I also taught Microbiology with lab (Bio 220) and General Biology with lab (Bio 101) on occasion.

Bachelor’s Degree
Animal Behavior, Ornithology, Evolution, Ecology
I participated in undergraduate research on Red-winged Blackbirds with Dr. Ken Yasukawa. We performed field research to study the effect of female calling and predator presence on nest vigilance.Southern Illinois University School of Medicine
Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.)
Pharmacology, neuroscience, physiology, aging, molecular biology
Dissertation title: Dorsal cochlear nucleus output neurons in young and aged rats. I studied how age impacts the electrophysiological responses of central auditory neurons to auditory stimuli. For this study, I recorded from a homogeneous population of DCN output neurons in young and aged rats. My results suggest an age-related loss of inhibitory input that results in processing auditory deficits, particularly to temporally-complex sounds.
