Developing a comprehensive worldview

Assistant Professor of Chemistry

Greenville University is a transformative place for students and faculty alike. As a faculty member, GU has allowed me to collaborate in unique ways. As a chemistry professor, I can walk down the hall and build on ideas with Biology. I can walk across the street and invite Digital Media students to get involved with Chemistry projects. I can walk up the hill and encourage Agribusiness faculty to participate in science summer research projects.

As a faculty member, this draws out multidisciplinary thinking that aligns well with the diverse perspectives in the ‘real world’. Many GU students are likely unaware of other ways to view the world, which allows them to naturally develop an appreciation for ALL of God’s creation.
