Biographical Information

Dr. Martin received a B.S. in applied mathematics from the University of Missouri – Rolla (now Missouri S&T) in 2004. She completed her M.S. and Ph.D. in mathematics at the University of Arkansas in 2006 and 2008, respectively. After completing her graduate studies, she served as a faculty member and administrator at Westminster College in Fulton, Mo., for nine years before joining the Lindenwood faculty in 2017. She has taught a variety of mathematics courses, ranging from Intermediate Algebra to Advanced Calculus. She is a strong proponent of active learning, particularly inquiry-based learning, and is actively engaged in undergraduate research. Besides working with students to conduct research in her own areas of geometric analysis and partial differential equations, she has led projects on topics ranging from graph theory to applied math. 

Dr. Martin currently lives in St. Charles with her husband, Josh, and son, Everett. Outside of Lindenwood, she enjoys reading (mostly science-fiction/fantasy novels), baking, swing dancing, and spending time with friends and family.
