Teaching Philosophy

I view teaching as a discovery process for both the student and myself. My primary objective is to build confidence and self reliance through stimulating laboratory and lecture experiences. I strive to instill in students the importance of knowledge with a conscience so they may thrive in their careers beyond Cal Poly but also give back to society.
