A little about my work…

I am an Associate Professor of Teaching in the Department of Mathematics at Wayne State University. My primary role is teaching undergraduate courses but I am engaged in other projects and service work within my department, college, and across the university.

I currently serve as a Representative of my college on the Academic Senate. I am also involved in several other committees around campus that center around student success and artificial intelligence AI).

From May 2018 until May 2020, I worked as Vice Chair of the Lecturer Steering Committee (LSC) with the AAUP-AFT Local 6075 and remain committed to supporting the teaching faculty at Wayne State.

Prior to being hired as a Lecturer in the fall of 2013, I worked as Interim Program Coordinator of the Wayne State Math Corps. The Math Corps is a summer outreach program for students in grades 7-12 who live in the city of Detroit. I have been with the program since my undergraduate years and I am proud to say that much of my teaching philosophy was shaped by my time with the program. During my time as an administrator, I put together a series of operation manuals which have helped set the stage for the program’s expansion. This expansion includes satellite locations across the country and abroad!

To support student success, I am also a Chapter Officer of the Gamma Chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, the nation’s oldest honor society. Check out our Chapter’s Facebook page!
