The only woman in a room of 20 tenured men. Topic: gender equity. Response (from several): “There are no gender issues here.” This is the gender issue. I stayed. I spoke up. Still here. #onlywoman #genderequity #academia #representationmatters #invisiblelabor #equitywork #listenandbelieve #STEMinism

Heading into Week 9 and reflecting on the first eight. My students are thinking deeply about math, justice, and community. Here's a snapshot. Excited for what's next! #MathForJustice #HumanizingMath #EdEquity #BelovedCommunity #DataLiteracy #TeachingMatters #MathEd #TeacherReflection

Love learning from and with my students. #Gratitude #MathEducation #SocialJusticeInMath #MentorshipMatters #TransformationalTeaching #ThankYouAdvisor #InclusiveEducation #EquityInSTEM #MathematicsForAll #LifelongLearning #LeadershipInEducation #HigherEd

"What is the Mathematics in Mathematics Education?" defines mathematics using three frames, each distinguished by its core tenets, overlaps, and distinctions. These frames offer different perspectives on the nature of mathematics. #MathematicsEducation #MathEd #EquityInMath #CriticalMathEd

#AMTE2025 we presented on participation patterns to center marginalized learners! We explored visualizing student contributions promote equitable discussions. How can we create space for all voices in math ed? #EquityInMathEd #MathematicsTeacherEducation #AMTE #JusticeInMathEd #Inclusion #mathed
