Hello
Welcome to my website
I'm a PhD student in the University of Iowa Department of Educational Policy and Leadership Studies (yes, it's a mouth-full).
I study civic and moral education from a philosophical, sociological, and historical perspective. I also use quantitative and qualitative methodologies to improve the evaluation of education programs, seeking to go beyond "standardized testing" to understand student's perceptions of and experiences in educational institutions.
“The proper university product is therefore not the whittled-down, isolated mentality of expertise, but a mind competent in all its concerns.”
