Brief Biographical Sketch:
I am a graduate student in the School of Earth Sciences here at Stanford studying methane emissions from abandoned oil and gas wells. I think that climate change is an issue that needs to be addressed, and every little improvement to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions are all important to help mitigate the damage we are doing to our planet. When not trying to save the planet, you can find me singing in a choir or playing the organ, two of my favorite activities. I also like to play tennis and go for bike rides, and California is certainly a great place to do these things! Past Classes(Clicking a class title will bring you to the course's section of the corresponding course catalog)C6536: The Mysterious Chemistry of Cooking in Splash Spring 2018 (May. 05 - 06, 2018)
Learn about what chemical changes happen when you mix and heat food. Some hands on activities and demonstrations will be planned!
A6100: The Art of Conducting in Splash Fall 2017 (Nov. 11 - 12, 2017)
Ever wondered what it takes to conduct an ensemble? In this course, we will explore the basic principles of conducting with an emphasis on developing your gesture. We will talk about basic beat patterns, entrances and cut-offs, dynamics, articulation, and expression. Students should leave this course with a general understanding of how to effectively conduct a simple piece of music in front of any ensemble. Anyone with an interest in learning to conduct should take this course, and instrumentalists and singers are especially encouraged to take it!
A5242: The Art of Conducting in Splash Fall 2016 (Dec. 03 - 04, 2016)
Ever wondered what it takes to conduct an ensemble? In this course, we will explore the basic principles of conducting with an emphasis on developing your gesture. We will talk about basic beat patterns, entrances and cut-offs, dynamics, articulation, and expression. Students should leave this course with a general understanding of how to effectively conduct a simple piece of music in front of any ensemble. Anyone with an interest in learning to conduct should take this course, and instrumentalists and singers are especially encouraged to take it!
R5243: Why is it getting so hot in here? in Splash Fall 2016 (Dec. 03 - 04, 2016)
This class will look at greenhouse gases, what they are, and how they are causing the temperature of the planet to rise. We will learn about radiation, the albedo effect, and positive and negative impacts. Students will leave this class with an understanding of why greenhouse gases are causing the planet to warm up.
V4970: Intro to Conducting in Splash Spring 2016 (Apr. 09 - 10, 2016)
Ever wondered what it takes to learn to conduct an ensemble? In this course, we will explore the basic principles of conducting with an emphasis on developing a pattern and adding articulation and expression. Students should be able to leave this course with a general understanding of how to effectively conduct a simple piece of music in front of any ensemble.
P5006: The Science of Global Warming in Splash Spring 2016 (Apr. 09 - 10, 2016)
This class will present some scientific studies relating to climate change. We will investigate the principles of the greenhouse effect to learn why emitting greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, will cause the global temperatures to rise.
V4709: Intro to Conducting in Splash Fall 2015 (Nov. 07 - 08, 2015)
Ever wondered what it takes to learn to conduct an ensemble? In this course, we will explore the basic principles of conducting with an emphasis on developing a pattern and adding articulation and expression. Students should be able to leave this course with a general understanding of how to effectively conduct a simple piece of music in front of any ensemble.
