TEACHING 

MY PHILOSOPHY

I am deeply passionate about teaching mathematics at all levels. In every course I teach, my primary goal is to help students build confidence in communicating, applying, and understanding mathematical concepts. I strive to help them recognize mathematics as a precise language that enhances our understanding of the world. When a student shares that they have developed a new appreciation for mathematics or feel more comfortable with the subject, I see it as a true measure of success. However, my work does not stop there. I am constantly seeking and testing new strategies to improve my teaching methods, fostering an inclusive environment where all students feel empowered to engage with and master mathematics. 

COURSES TAUGHT

Below is a list of all the mathematics courses in which I have served as the instructor of record.

EDUCATIONAL SERVICES

Below is a list of additional services I provided for the Department of Mathematics at UNL:

• Associate Course Coordinator for MATH 102 during the 2022-2023 academic year. I also collaborated with a faculty member and a graduate teaching assistant to restructure and develop active learning materials for this course during Summer 2022.

• Graduate Student Representative on the search committee for hiring an Assistant Professor in Math Education (Fall 2022).

• Associate Coordinator for the Mathematics Resource Center during the 2020-2021 academic year. In this role, I provided leadership and support to math graduate teaching assistants, helping them deliver online tutoring via Zoom to undergraduate students enrolled in First-Year Mathematics Courses. 

• Curriculum Development: Contributed to the development of resources and problem workbooks for the following First-Year Mathematics Courses: MATH 102, 104, 106, and 435. 

• Co-Author of the following Open Educational Resources (OER) Textbooks:
