What sparked your interest in education? How did you end up working with CPET?

I always loved school and learning, but I also always struggled with math. In college, something clicked, and I realized how awesome mathematics was. I wanted to help other struggling students see the beauty in math and experience success in it as well. I heard about CPET through my friend, who told me how rewarding her experiences were working with CPET as a mathematics coach.

What are your current research interests and current projects?

Mathematics education and social justice through a mathematics curriculum.

If your life was a movie, what genre would it be, who would play you, and what is one song you want on the soundtrack?

Action. Uma Thurman. Whitney Houston's "Greatest Love of All"

If you could choose one word to summarize CPET's philosophy what would it be?

Transformation
