Past Teaching Experiences:

• Taught quantum mechanics at Masters level (PHYS 710, 711, 712) for two year at Wright State University.  Though teaching was not a requirement for my research faculty position, I taught the courses out of my own interest.
• Taught PHYS 201, undergraduate Mechanics course at Texas A&M for big class (with 96 students).
• Guest lectures in many classes by Prof. Scully and others at Texas A&M and Princeton University.
