Hello students and parents! I am a new teacher at Austin HS, and I am looking forward to teaching you this year.

A little bit about me- I graduated from Rice in May 2023 with a B.A. in Neuroscience. At Rice, I did science research and was involved in science education-related extracurriculars, including running the Science Olympiad tournaments at Rice. For fun, I did creative writing, including writing a comedy play which was performed and writing a scifi screenplay, dabbled in theatre, as well as played the violin.

My decision to teach forensic science came from inspiration from my father, who is a detective, and doing forensics science in high school myself through Science Olympiad. In college, I was especially interested in the neuroscience aspect of forensics, including criminal psychology. I hope to teach the importance of different fields of science in the real-world through teaching forensic science.
