I’m really delighted (and still a little shocked) to announce that I won the prestigious Faculty Member of the Year award for 2026. This award is student-driven, which makes it all the more humbling to receive. All credit for this award is definitely due to my students, who I assume must have done some kind of whisper campaign to support my election or something.

In all seriousness, though, this is such an honor. To receive such an award after only two years at The W feels like a dream. I have loved every second of the time I’ve spent here with these incredible students. I’m looking forward to many years to come with them!
