PhD Candidate in Mathematical Sciences @ University of Vermont · Computational & data modeler · Mathematics educator
I build mathematical models for real-world problems in biology, public health, and clinical data — then make the results clear to whoever needs them. First-author published, with 4+ years teaching university-level mathematics.

4+ years teaching Algebra through Calculus II and Modern Mathematics — 45–51 students per section, rated 4.4–4.8/5 for building an inclusive, student-centered classroom. I care about making hard quantitative ideas land for everyone, not just the few who arrive confident.
