Nina White
MaCSS PI and Director, Lecturer IV in Mathematics, Associate Research Scientist, Coordinator of Math Instructor Professional Development
Nina White is a mathematician who focuses on teaching and teacher training in college mathematics. She cares deeply about teaching, students, and equity in mathematics (and STEM more broadly). She received her undergraduate degree in Mathematics from UC Berkeley and her PhD from University of Michigan. She is grateful to get to run MaCSS, engage with all of the amazing scholars, and collaborate across organizational structures to create something new and impactful. For fun she likes word games, lifting heavy barbells, and patronizing the public library.
