Taught 6th grade science at Rise Academy middle school which was in its second year of a turn around mission (now 4th year) to change the narrative of what a public school in the Springfield district can achieve and provide for the community it serves.

2016 Western Mass Corps Member

I worked as a graduate teaching assistant for two classes (Kines 345 and Kines 141). My duties included lecturing, leading discussion sections, conducting review sessions, and other clerical tasks involved with both classes.

I taught Kines 345 (Meaning, Ethics, and Movement) in the Summer of 2015. Kines 345 is a core curriculum course that all Kinesiology majors must take and pass. The course touches on the philosophical foundations of kinesiology, importance of play and games, as well as professional ethics involved in different fields related to the kinesiology discipline.

Helped with daily clinic needs (laundry, ice, cleaning) as well as assisting patients carry out their therapy programs.
