is a Lecturer in the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department at the University of Maryland College Park. Her responsibilities include teaching various undergraduate courses in environmental engineering (such as Engineering for Sustainability and Environmental Engineering Science) and conducting research focused on emerging organic pollutants and their environmental fate. She specializes in the production of stabilized biosolids, its use as a fertilizer and its impact on environmental pollution concerning organic contaminants. She has also specialized in redesigning engineering courses to make them more student-centered and encouraging of active learning. More recently, she started work on engineering education research that analyses the incorporation and effectiveness of engineering macroethics in-class activities that focus on sustainable development.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
