  • Pronouns: she/her/hers

  • Senior Lecturer

I am passionate about teaching about (and continuing to learn about) all the ways in which sexuality, families and larger systems are interconnected.

What Students Can Expect From Me

As a practicing Psychologist and Sex Therapist, in all of my classes students can expect opportunities to apply course information to real-life family situations. They can expect opportunities to learn about future career options and support as they move towards professional goals. I hope to serve as a role model and support to students who are interested in pursuing careers in social work, psychology, MFT, or sex therapy. I hope to create classroom experiences that are lively, personally relevant, and extremely interactive.
