Document:
Develop and teach online and on-campus marine science courses (Introduction to Oceanography (OCE 1001c); The Living Ocean (OCB 1000c); Marine Biology (OCB 2010/L)).
Develop and teach research-based honors courses, including study-abroad to Costa Rica and BCS Mexico (Marine Biology Undergraduate Research - Honors (OCB 2910)) and interdisciplinary courses (Special Topics in Arts & Science (IDS 2930).
Mentor and advise student research-based theses projects.
Engage in college service activities, including course supervisor for all marine science courses, member Academic Technology / eLearning Committee (chair 2015-2016), member Honors Advisory Council, member Library Advisory Committee, faculty advisor for Phi Theta Kappa International Honor Society (2009-2014), member Academic Standards Committee (2008 - 2013).
Engage in community service. Coordinate and serve as site host for community cleanup and/or ecosystem restoration events in collaboration with Keep Lee County Beautiful, average 3-4 per year.
Chaperone and mentor student groups during domestic and international travel.
Wrote original content for online learning platform “Mastering Oceanography”.
Performed professional reviews of textbook updates and ancillary materials, including animations, question banks and Mastering Oceanography.
Led independent class meetings weekly, assisted in curriculum development and student assessments; Life in the Sea (Ocea 80A) and Ocean Ecosystems (Ocea 240).
Collaborated with SCCF research scientists to develop an authentic field experience for marine science students, "Scientist for a Day". Train students to collect data for ongoing fish biodiversity study.
Recruit and train students to participate in volunteer ecosystem restoration events as needed.
Supervised FSW student internship for education majors (“Research Experience for Pre-service Teachers”) in collaboration with faculty at Indian River State College and SCCF scientists (2014).
Conducted laboratory experiments on the uptake of algal toxins to commercially harvested crabs.
Responsible for execution of on-board experiment examining the behavioral affects of live fish after exposure to natural concentrations of the algal toxin domoic acid.
Perform basic lab technician duties as needed (see below).
Conduct research related to dissertation.
Skills acquired include culture establishment and maintenance, toxin extractions and analysis, microscopy, and molecular techniques for identification of HAB species.
Performed routine field sampling for HAB monitoring program, general lab maintenance (orders, hazardous waste, organization), data management and analysis, and preparation of oral and poster presentations for principal investigator.
Assisted with planning and executing fundraising and educational events as needed.
Recruited and trained student volunteers for events with the goal of raising awareness and understanding of red tide and sustainable fisheries practices.
