Dr. Galle joined the mathematics faculty of the Castleton Campus in Fall 2014 after spending a year as a post-doctoral associate in the Department of Teaching and Learning at New York University in New York, NY. Inspired by teaching courses in Precalculus and Calculus at the Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, NY for two years, she received her Ph.D. in Mathematics Education from the University of New Hampshire in Durham, NH in May 2013. After briefly serving as an academic dean from June 2020 – June 2023, she is pleased to be back in the classroom teaching mathematics!
When she’s not busy preparing her lectures or answering student questions, she enjoys knitting, doing jigsaw puzzles, bird-watching, and hiking/snow-shoeing.
