Teaching

In my current role at the University of Georgia, I teach courses on Israeli domestic politics, culture, and society; the Arab-Israeli conflict; Middle Eastern history, politics, cultures, and religions; U.S.–Israel relations; and the intersection of popular culture and politics. Across these courses, I strive to build a consistently inclusive, respectful, and intellectually engaging classroom community in which students encounter diverse perspectives and learn to approach complex questions with analytical rigor, curiosity, and openness to serious critical discussion.
