Learning Goes Both Ways
GLOBAL PRACTICE MEETS THE CLASSROOM
I connect university learning with more than two decades of field experience in sustainable development, global health, food systems and gender equity.
My strongest academic conversations happen when students can link theory to lived experience. I bring cases from international assignments, collaborative facilitation and cultural storytelling into guest lectures, workshops and applied learning programs.
