Professor of Geography and Coffee Maven

• 1997 - Present

I teach courses on environmental geography, the geography of Latin America, and the geography of coffee. I also bring geography programs directly to primary and secondary schools, and help both future and in-service teachers develop their geography-teaching skills. Most importantly, I help to connect students of geography -- both majors and those taking just a course or two -- to the world of ideas and possibilities that is modern geography.
