The mathematical community is historically not a welcoming one. Even today, the community does not reflect the diversity of people, identities, and ideas that make up our society as a whole. It is important to me to work towards creating a more representative community; this work begins (but doesn't end) in my classrooms. I strive to create and maintain an open and inclusive classroom in which you feel safe to share your thoughts, ideas, and experiences, and I welcome you to share your suggestions for how I can better accomplish this.

I am committed to continuing my own education about creating more inclusive and equitable classrooms, and I will continue to advocate for the broadening of participation in mathematics as a member of the Math Department’s Diversity and Inclusion Committee.
