Student Resources

Being a college student can be challenging. Here are some Student Resources that may be helpful.

Outside of math, I spend a lot of time hiking, backpacking, and birdwatching. During the Fall of 2018, I accomplished my longtime dream of hiking the 211-mile John Muir Trail/ Nüümü Poyo through the beautiful Sierra Nevada Mountains. After finishing the trail, I spent a gap year in Seattle with my partner Alex.

You can see pictures of some of those adventures here.

I currently serve on the Division of Physical Sciences EDI Student Advisory Board. I'm always happy to discuss diversity, equity, and inclusivity-related issues, including being a woman in math.
