Introduction

I am a postdoctoral lecturer in the Department of Mathematics at Northwestern University. I was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Western Ontario from 2019 to 2021. I obtained my Ph.D. from JHU in 2019 with a thesis titled An application of the h-principle to Manifold Calculus.

My academic responsibilities have included:

  • coordinating and teaching multi-section courses,
  • teaching in-person and online courses with several hundred students,
  • adapting large service courses for asynchronous education,
  • creating advanced electives and short boot camp courses for small groups of students,
  • managing TAs,
  • hiring mentors for summer camps,
  • supervising reading courses and reading programs,
  • creating open education resources such as video lectures and Webwork questions,
  • creating course content using RMarkdown and PreTeXt,
  • formalizing mathematics in Lean theorem prover.

I have taught topics spanning calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, linear programming, discrete math, math formalization, manifolds, and algebraic topology. In recent years, my focus has been on creating course content that is reusable, adaptable, and freely available. I’m interested in creating and redesigning interdisciplinary math courses focusing on real-world applications and modeling.
