Dr. AJ Stachelek is an Assistant Professor of Mathematics at Hostos Community College of the City University of New York (CUNY), with particular responsibility for redesigning curricula to facilitate student success.

Dr. Stachelek obtained his doctorate in Mathematics Education at Teachers College, Columbia University in 2014. Immediately following graduation, he obtained a position at Hostos Community College, with an emphasis on teaching at the developmental course level.
