- You might not know that I
- travel the countryside on my Harley whenever I can.
- When I let my hair down, I can be found
- on my motorcycle.
- My welcome-to-teaching moment that I’ll never forget was
- everyone had given me the notebook from the person who taught the class before me and so I started the class trying to teach it like somebody else. I got about two to three weeks into it and realized that that was that person and I needed to teach what I thought was important.
- I chose UNC because
- of the great people I would work with.
- Confucius would say my teaching philosophy is
- that I try to bring out the knowledge imbedded in each person.
- If I’m not teaching a class, or in my office, you can find me on campus at
- the U.C.
- I cannot live without
- my computer.
- If I hadn’t become a teacher, I would be a
- lawyer.
- Yearbook quote (advice you like to give to students or best advice you’ve received)
- “To be open to the possibilities that life presents to you.”
