Teaching, Training & Outreach

I like helping people get fluent with hard technical ideas, whether that's calculus or agentic AI.

Now

• AI training at Argonne. I co-authored the S³ AI Tutorial Series with Matthew Swindall: six video chapters with hands-on exercises, from everyday LLM use through programming and agentic workflows, built for researchers across the Strategic Security Sciences division.

• Mentoring. I mentor early-career researchers and postdoctoral appointees on applied AI and agentic engineering.

• Outreach. In 2026 I mentored in Argonne's WIST IGED program and the Empowering Educators to Accelerate AI in STEM Education program, and volunteered at the Coding for Science Camp.

University of South Carolina (2019–2023)

I greatly enjoyed my time as a graduate student instructor. I was instructor of record for six courses (Business Calculus and Precalculus) and a teaching assistant for Calculus I and II, and I served as a graduate assistant for the Summer School on Mathematical Foundations of Data Science.

I am PFF certified.

Successful PFF candidates have completed activities designed to prepare participants in the critical areas of faculty competence: teaching, research and service. This accomplishment is an indicator of the participant's initiative and a measure of experience toward becoming future faculty.
