Dr. Abernathy graduated from Wake Forest University in 2006 with
a B.S. in mathematics and a B.S. in physics. He continued on to North Carolina
State University to earn his Ph.D. in mathematics in 2011, during which time he
was able to teach a variety of courses including the calculus sequence and
ordinary/partial differential equations. Abernathy then joined the Winthrop
Department of Mathematics in the summer of 2011 as an adjunct instructor, where
he currently teaches calculus and discrete mathematics courses. In addition to
teaching and working as a tutor for the LEAP program, Abernathy also enjoys
doing research in the areas of nonlinear differential/difference equations and
functional analysis.
Some of his other hobbies include running, basketball
(both watching and playing), piano, tennis, and reading. Most of all, he looks
forward to time spent with his wife and son, as well as visiting family and
friends in the Carolinas.
