My research explores mathematics education as a humanizing (Freire, 1970) practice, emphasizing the connection between learners' well-being and sociohistorical contexts in shaping their meaningful experiences in mathematics. I am committed to creating a more accessible and equitable learning environment for students and teachers, focusing on the design, implementation, and evaluation of inclusive mathematics curricula and pedagogical approaches.
A key area of my research centers around the implementation of mathematical modeling, empowering students to use mathematical concepts alongside their personal experiences to analyze real-world situations and make informed decisions. I often facilitate mathematics sessions, summer camps, and after-school programs, offering students, teachers, and community members opportunities to explore equitable mathematical modeling and problem solving.
My research methodology is anchored in multi-tiered design-based research (Lesh & Kelly, 2000), enabling me to delve into culturally sustaining practices and identify theoretical perspectives related to instructional design, implementation, and discourse that arise from the implementation of mathematical modeling and STEM problem-solving.
