Teaching Page is Up

I have been working for a couple of semesters at Manhattan College teaching Computer Applications for Life Sciences. I have spent a good amount of time revamping the slides given to me to make the course more accessible and more approachable for self-study. Take a look at my Teaching Page to see lectures, homework solutions, and other material designed by me to see how its going!

First Math Teaching Interview

Yesterday, I had the opportunity to interview for an Adjunct position in the Manhattan College Math department. They had me prepare a teaching demo for Calculus I, which as a former Calculus I grader, feels like stepping into the spotlight. Remembering my Calculus I and II professor, an Adjunct named Dr. P., I felt it was fitting to write a post since he was one of my earlier math inspirations, and I was channeling the lesson and analogies he used back in the day for my interview.

Communicate Effectively with Grafana

If you’re like me, it can takes days to figure out what a group of researchers discovered in a math and statistics research paper. Things can get even more complex if you’re not abreast of the niche developments in the sub-field. To make matters worse, when putting together projects, I find that I am trying to convey something relatively simple but my point is often mired by the formalism, and precise definitions, endemic to statistics.

To solve this issue, I am incorporating Grafana dashboards into my old projects, and current projects. Coupled with writing a one page summary, I think my projects will be accessible to those not well versed in change-point detection, or even market microstructure. Experts will find it refreshing to see projects that can quickly points out anomalies in the order book.
