Two Decades of Interdisciplinary Teaching
I teach Middle East Studies, Francophone Studies, Women’s, Gender & Sexuality Studies, and International Law with experience at undergraduate and graduate levels.
My teaching philosophy is rooted in the belief that the most profound academic insights emerge at the intersections of established disciplines.
The intersectionality of the fields above allows me to train global citizens capable of navigating complexity and reconciling universal ideals with local realities. This unique approach allows students to challenge monolithic narratives as it offers a variety of sources and voices.
