About me
Alison Mirin recently completed her postdoctoral researcher position in the mathematics department at the University of Arizona and is now a researcher at the City University of New York. She earned her PhD in Mathematics Education from Arizona State University and holds an MA in Mathematics. Before pursuing her doctorate, she taught high school mathematics at San Francisco Waldorf High School. Her research examines how students make inferences and conceptualize mathematical inscriptions across a range of contexts. Passionate about increasing accessibility in mathematics and mathematics education, Alison views inference-making, accessibility, and equity as deeply interconnected. She believes that supporting students in making sense of mathematics requires approaches that are both accessible and equitable.
