TEACHING SUMMARY

My primary courses are in hydrogeology and environmental geology. I also work teaching the public and industry professionals. I work with the National Ground Water Association, the Geological Society of America, and the International Association of Hydrogeologists to develop professional development courses, K-12 exercises, and give talks on groundwater issues.
