Teaches:
"Many students coming to law school have only a vague understanding of what legal practice is like or how legal processes work in actual practice. Through my courses I strive to further students’ understandings of both their future work as lawyers and the actual working of the legal systems by immersing them in the extensive systematic research that we have concerning these topics."
