About Me
I came to Berkeley in Fall 2007 from Bowling Green State University where I received a B.S. in Applied Mathematics and Psychology. While here, I have pursued teaching interests with the math department and research interests in the GSE - both of which continue to help me focus my interests in undergraduate math education.
Current Projects
I am currently teaching for the math department and earning my Masters in statistics, while also taking courses in Education. Some current areas of interest associated with ongoing projects are: (1) Calculus Study [with other members of DILL] (2) GSI Decision Making, UC Berkeley/SFSU [with Aditya Adiredja] (3) "Clarifying the Mathematical Underpinnings of Secondary School Mathematics in the United States" [Noyce initiative to bring together mathematicians, math educators, and teachers and unify the content that underlies high school mathematics] (4) "Assessing Progress for College Readiness with Cognitive and Psychometric Models for Student Learning in Mathematics" [with POME candidate Diana Bernbaum-Wilmot] (5) Making Calculus Accessible to non-STEM students Some past projects/research included: (5) Senior Honors Thesis - Transitions in Math Education, Student Perspectives [Bowing Green State University] (6) Rhythm and Perception Laboratory [with J. Devin McAuley, Bowling Green State University] (7) Analysis of mother speech for children with cochlear implants [with Dr. Laura Dilley, Bowling Green State University].
