Biography

Biography:

After finishing my degree at Lehigh University, I taught at Kutztown University (2 years) and Lehigh University (2 years).

Teaching Activities:

I teach two sections of our introductory statistics course, Statistical Methods, MTH 104 most semesters. I am currently teaching a section of Calculus I, MTH 121, and have taught Discrete Structures, MTH 215, in the past.

Scholarly Activities:

I have attended a number of conferences on teaching statistics, most recently the Eighth Annual "Beyond the Formula" conference in Rochester, NY. I have also been to several meetings of the EPADEL society, the regional group of the Mathematical Association of America. My dissertation was in the field of numerical analysis. I gave a lecture on my work at the annual winter meeting of the American Mathematical Society, Baltimore, MD.

Personal Activities:

My hobbies include gardening and reading. My family includes my husband, Bruce, a math professor at Lehigh, a son, Allen, a PhD student at Harvard, and a cat, Taro.
