I've taught a wide variety of courses as a teaching assistant and instructor at George Washington University at the undergraduate and graduate level including courses closely related to my research on political violence, International Relations and Comparative Politics introductory seminars, and methodological courses. In the summer of 2023, I had the opportunity to teach my own "Civil Wars" course at the undergraduate level. I have also developed a course specifically focusing on the experience of civilians during civil wars, "Civilians in Civil Wars: Participants, Victims, and Independent Actors," that was twice awarded the Dean's Graduate Instructorship in Spring 2024 and Spring 2025. Due to conflicts with external fellowships, I had to decline the teaching fellowship but look forward to teach the course in the future.
One of my favorite teaching experiences is my department's Graduate Math Camp for incoming PhD students. Teaching PhD students at the start of their graduate school experience (and attempting to convert them all into Methods Minors) has been a great way to meet and mentor future cohorts of scholars.
