Professional Background
I have been teaching in the Faculty of Mathematics since 2005. In 2009, I created a workshop for grade 9 and 10 girls called “Think About Math” in order to encourage them to consider furthering their education in mathematics. The success of this program led to the creation of an annual workshop that brings high school girls together with the University of Waterloo’s math alumni. I am the Chair of the Euclid Math Contest committee and member of the Centre for Education in Mathematics and Computing (CEMC). As a CEMC member, I visit high school students and informs them about math contests and interesting areas of math that they can pursue as a potential career path after high school. I took a leave from teaching in 2018 to work in the technology sector and returned to the university in 2020. I received the Award for Excellence in Online Teaching in 2020. In 2024, I was promoted to Associate Professor, Teaching Stream.
