Education and career[]
Hardin is a Pomona graduate, earning a bachelor's degree there in mathematics in 1995. She initially planned to do actuarial science, but was led to statistics by a faculty mentor, Donald Bentley.[2] She went to the University of California, Davis for her graduate studies, earning a master's degree in 1997 and a Ph.D. in 2000.[1] Her dissertation, supervised by David Rocke, was Multivariate Outlier Detection and Robust Clustering with Minimum Covariance Determinant Estimation and S-Estimation.[3]
After postdoctoral studies at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center and Seattle University, she returned to Pomona in 2002 as a faculty member.[4] She considers John Crowley, her postdoctoral supervisor, to be her "closest mentor".[2]
Recognition[]
In 2015 she was elected as a Fellow of the American Statistical Association.[5] She won the Waller Education Award of the American Statistical Society in 2007,[1] and Pomona's highest faculty honor, the Wig Distinguished Professor award for excellence in teaching, in 2016.[6]
