‍While working part-time during her 3 years as a new mom, Cathy served as a mathematics instructor at Penn State Lehigh Valley, working with high school students in a summer and Saturday enrichment program affiliated with the Private Industry Council.  She also taught high school SAT Preparation Mathematics classes through Penn State.  In March 2012, Cathy transitioned to Eanes Independent School District in Austin, Texas, where she serves as a middle school mathematics teacher.  She is thrilled to be a part of the one-to-one iPad initiative at Hill Country Middle School.


‍Cathy has a Bachelor of Science in Education from Clarion University of Pennsylvania where she majored in Secondary Education/Mathematics.  She earned her Master of Science in Education from Wilkes University of Pennsylvania in the area of Classroom Technology.  


‍Cathy is passionate about mathematics education, especially with regard to middle school students.  Through her own teaching ventures, as well as coaching and mentoring other teachers, she has developed a library of successful curriculum materials based on students’ needs.  Many of her works are featured in the sidebar at mathycathy.com/blog including classroom-ready Desmos activities, Nearpod lessons, standards-aligned Kahoots, eBooks, keynote addresses at professional conferences, and more!
