I have about fifteen years of experience developing programs and courses for helping people to learn mathematics and to engage in thought-provoking studies. I design, develop and write about learning experiences for diverse people and situations: early algebra games for pre-K groups of children; Math Clubs and the Family Online Studies for family-centered communities; classes and seminars for k-20 and graduate students; and seminars, workshops and classes for pre-service and in-service teachers. I started several online educational communities, including the Natural Math network and the Math 2.0 Interest Group. I am a member of several hundred online educator networks. I have MS in Applied Mathematics from Tulane University and PhD in Mathematics Education from NCSU. My studies have been supported by grants, and published and presented nationally and internationally.

I live in Cary, North Carolina with my husband of twenty years and our daughter. I like to read science fiction and fantasy. My favorite computer games are MMORPGs (Eve Online, World of Warcraft) and puzzles (Blokus). Of the arts, I like drawing, folding origami, and drumming.
