Teaching Philosophy
Studying economics gives students an intuitive theoretical framework for making sense of economic news, public policy, and daily life. My mission as an economics instructor is to pass on the core insights of economic theory and equip students with the skills to apply economic reasoning to their work and lives. I pursue this mission in two ways. First, I cultivate an active classroom in which students frequently test their knowledge of key concepts and practice applying economic reasoning. Second, I design assignments that connect abstract economic theories to empirical data.
I have refined this approach through my experience as an instructor of record for Principles of Macroeconomics and as a Teaching Assistant for PhD-level Macroeconomic Theory. The University of Georgia recognized these efforts with the 2025 Swift Undergraduate Teaching Fellowship and the 2024-2025 Outstanding Teaching Assistant Award.
