About

I have been at Rutgers as a member of the teaching faculty in the math department since 2012. Throughout this time, I have taught over 4,000 students in courses ranging from math for liberal arts to core courses for math majors. Besides teaching, I have been involved with course redesigns, course coordination, advising, and various administrative duties.

Current Work

In addition to teaching in the math department, I am the Associate Undergraduate Vice Chair for Administration. I am also the Math 130 Coordinator and the Math Transfer Advisor. These roles sometimes include working with other departments or deans, especially in regards to their transfer students who have taken math courses at other schools. I am currently on the SAS Curriculum Committee and on a STEM Coordinators Committee.
