1. What's the goal of your research? What do you hope to change with it?

My research is mainly about pedagogy. I enjoy teaching and inputting the pedagogy into my course teaching.

2. What do you enjoy most about your work?

I enjoy the interaction with my students very much. My greatest strength is my approachability and positive attitude which always make my students feel like the classroom is a safe and happy environment to learn a new foreign language. I am also happy to learn new things from my students.

1. What does a typical day at your job look like?

Every day brings about a new project or priority, so really no two days are the same. Currently, I am learning a lot about the legal process behind contracts with international programmers for content rights, operations, business models, etc. I also really enjoy researching potential programmers and evaluating content that could be part of Sling/DISH.
