University of Louisville

Geography graduate seeking to better understand our environment and solve complex problems using geospatial skills

Louisville, Kentucky, United States

For the last three years I have taught The Global Environment for undergraduates as well as filling in for other professors as needed and contributing to various research projects.  As an introduction to the global environment, coursework emphasizes the evolution and interaction of Earth’s atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere and biosphere; energy and material cycles, and global change.I have developed 14 modules requiring students to complete weekly readings, quizzes, lab assignments, and discussion forums to facilitate learning, engagement, and interaction.  I am solely responsible for lesson planning, grading, communication, and trouble shooting.As a natural science course, I saught to satisfy the requirement for students to demonstrate they could:1. Relate everyday observations of the world to physical principles;2. Apply scientific principles to construct explanations of natural phenomena; 3. Communicate an understanding of scientific explanations of natural phenomena.

Lecturer

As a young professional eager to prove myself, I built a successful book of business with cold calling and relationship sales tactics.  With an established account of clients, I began developing my leadership skills while earning several promotions and leading my own sales team.I was fortunate to help found a satellite office (Louisville, KY) and transfer to multiple locations working in three separate states while learning different leadership styles.With over $6,500,000 in career sales revenue, I accomplished all of my personal goals with TQL and left on my own terms to continue my education.
