I received my BS (2001), MS(2005), and PhD (2009), all in mathematics, from Louisiana State University. I also earned an M.Ed. in secondary mathematics education from LSU in 2002. My PhD is in the area of differential equations; more specifically, I study semigroups of operators as solutions to Cauchy problems. I joined the mathematics department at UL Lafayette in 2011. I teach primarily STEM majors.
