I am an Associate Professor in the Institute for STEM Education at Clarkson University and an affiliate of Clarkson’s Mathematics Department. I earned my BS and PhD from the University of Iowa and received a master’s degree in Mathematical Finance from Boston University. My research concentrates on developing new strategies and best practices for bringing innovation and active learning into K-16 STEM classrooms, with particular emphasis on mathematical modeling.
