The Man
The Myth
The Mac
Howdy Howdy Hello! I am a fourth year graduate student at the University of Nebraska – Lincoln pursuing a Ph.D. in mathematics. I am advised by Yvonne Lai, and I received an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship in the Spring of 2023.
I am primarily interested in mathematics education and expanding the accessibility of mathematics. These days, a majority of my time is split between the following three pursuits:
- Prison education, specifically providing college level courses for prisoners and expanding access to educational resources behind bars;
- Development of Open Educational Resources (OERs), both at the undergradaute and graduate level; and
- Shifts in mathematical self-efficacy at transitionary points in undergraduate education, such as a first calculus or proof based course.
Outside of math, you will probably find me climbing, reading by the lake (weather permitting), or neglecting my cats.
