About Me
I received my Ph.D. in mathematics at the University of Tennessee in 2019 and soon thereafter joined the faculty at Eckerd College. My research area is Mathematical Biology with a focus in disease modeling. I enjoy teaching applied mathematics courses including probability, statistics and differential equations. In my spare time I enjoy birding watching, crafting with yarn, tending to my plant collection, and cuddling with my two dogs and cat. In the summers I travel with my husband to see new species of birds for our life list.
