Teaching
I've had the opportunity to do a lot of physics teaching at several levels. For various classes I've been a tutor, a teaching assistant (TA), or a grader. Recently I've been the Instructor of Record for a small class that exposes first-year undergraduates to lattice field theory. This was made possible through the Science Research Initiative.

Python pedagogical talks
Bielefeld University was partnered with two other German universities in a CRC; this was essentially a collaboration to tackle the QCD phase diagram using multiple methods. One of my responsibilities was to help teach interested CRC members, in particular young scientists like grad students and postdocs, some basics of using Python. These pedagogical talks are a result of that.
Talks about teaching
Every year the American Association of Physics Teachers hosts a conference about teaching physics. Sometimes I share something about my teaching experience when I'm there.
