The Cal Lutheran Experience

Computer Science

Putting something together and making stuff is the ultimate problem-solving puzzle experiment. It's the trial and error that's the fun part. My first programming course was with Dr. Reinhart, and he realized that I was very interested in programming.

The Spanish Literature and Society course fascinated me because I had the chance to read literature from amazing writers who have shaped the Spanish language to what it is today. That is what was the most impactful for me - learning about all these great writers who interpreted their point of view on life in various ways all while incorporating Latin American history and politics into their works.

Theatre Arts

Part of my goal as a professor and mentor, in helping students discover their purpose, is to nurture their interests. Because theatre is comprised of so many different areas, sub-disciplines and specializations, it's important to help the students discover their passion and desire within the industry. That may mean encouraging them to investigate a class they  may not have chosen to take on their own or exposing them to another area within theatre where you can see an interest in.
