During my time at NC State I worked as a Teaching Assistant for Precalculus (MA 107), and Calculus III (MA 242). This involved preparing for and holding recitations that ran parallel to the course to ensure that students were absorbing the key material of the course. During this time I also attended lectures, took attendance and graded exams for the course. I have also been instructor of record for Calculus II (MA 241), which involved preparing a curriculum, delivering lectures, writing and grading exams and most importantly ensuring that students were understanding the material presented in the course.

As a graduate research assistant I was involved in multiple projects using finite difference and finite element methods to solve open mathematical problems in the field of numerical partial differential equations. As part of my responsibilities I independently developed software for multiple projects using finite difference methods in MATLAB and Python and contributed to developing new algorithms in the field using linear algebra, optimization and finite differences. Our work simulated real world problems in gas dynamics, biology, and traffic flow.

I developed an "emporium-style" mathematics curriculum for welding and automotive tech students for the upcoming fall quarter. The course uses the WAMAP course management platform, teaching primarily through video lectures and online problems.This involved:1) Writing detailed lesson scripts with contextualized examples2) Recording and editing lectures using Camtasia3) Creating and coding contextualized problems into WAMAPI also taught a pre-college level mathematics class that uses the emporium model of teaching. This entails answering any and all questions students may have, clarifying concepts, and administering and grading exams.
