Hobbies
I really enjoy teaching! I have always had a love for teaching and initially wanted to be a high school teacher. Halfway through college, I realized that I loved college-level math so much and I would rather be a college professor. So, I decided to go to graduate school and work on a Ph.D. in math! In my role as a Graduate Teaching Associate, I love working with students and helping them understand and enjoy math! When I'm not teaching or doing math, I enjoy spending time with my Goldendoodle Henry, going for hikes, and traveling.
