How do you approach your role as a professor?

I like to think of myself as a co-facilitator in the learning process. I often tell students, it’s not always important what you think, but it’s extremely important that you think.

Who is someone you look up to admire?

Artists. Having the courage to pursue art full-time is brave, necessary, and humbling.

What’s something few people know about you that might be surprising to some?

I spent the first 7 years of my life in Germany, and used to be fluent in German. (Unfortunately, that is no longer the case)

How do you spend your free time?

I enjoy live theater and traveling.

What’s your favorite TV show?

Current – Ozark (Netflix); All-time (The West Wing)

What are you most looking forward to this semester?

Getting to know the students here at Towson. I’ve heard great things!!
