About Me:
I graduated in 2007 from Brandeis University with a degrees in Math and Physics, and a minor in secondary education. After graduation I taught high school physics for a year in Massachusetts. I'm currently a third year graduate student in the physics education group.
What I'm Working On:
- Studying engineers' mathematical sense-making with equations.
- This whole "global warming" problem.
- Studying how contextual cues will shift how students treat approximations in the contexts of physics and math.
Contributed Talks:
- Kuo, E., Hull, M.M., Elby, A., and Gupta, A. (2010). Explaining student expertise with mathematical sense-making. AAPT 2010 winter meeting, Washington, D.C.

them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the immensity of the sea."
