I am honored to have been recognized for exceptional teaching for a special topics course on Lidar Remote Sensing, which I co-developed and co-taught with Dr. Amanda Schwantes in Spring 2018. Along with 26 other instructors at the Nicholas School of the Environment, I received a rating of at least 4.5 on a scale of 1 to 5 in student course evaluations. It is impressive that so many instructors in our department have been recognized for teaching excellence in addition to the high-caliber research that they produce!
