Personal Info
Lindsay Webster is a double major in Mathematics and Theatre Arts in the Honors Program at Marquette University. She will graduate in 2019. She is the Production Manager of Marquette's Helfaer Theatre, where she also serves as a performer and occasionally a set designer. She served as Treasurer of the Marquette University Players Society for two years. She recently made a probabilistic mathematical model to predict the winner of Best Musical at the annual Tony Awards. So if you're wondering how Mathematics and Theatre Arts combine, that's it.
Research Topic
How Gaussian Stochastic Processes can be used to predict landslide behaviors.
