Interests
I enjoy the balance between teaching in the math classroom and supporting students individually in the Academic Support Center. Most recently, I developed a math elective to introduce students to the field of dynamical systems, including fractals and chaos theory. I enjoy traveling, discussing fiction with my book group, cooking, and participating in a variety of athletic activities, including walking many miles each year to raise money for breast cancer prevention and research.
