Current Teaching:

This semester (Fall 2023), I am teaching section 13 of Math 242 (Calc 3). If you have any questions about this course, please do not hesitate to send me an email or come to my office hours.

Teaching Awards:

I am the recipient of the 2017-2018 Math Department Graduate Student Teaching Award  (Brandeis) and the 2019 Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Outstanding Teaching Fellow Award (Brandeis).

Precalculus Redesign:

During the summer of 2018, I worked with Becci Torrey and Rose Morris-Wright under a Brandeis teaching innovation grant to revamp the Brandeis precalculus curriculum. We have redesigned the course to utilize Standards-Based Grading and Team-Based Learning. These research-based teaching methods are designed to increase learning and decrease student anxiety through the use of a flipped classroom and transparent grading.
