It might be technically inaccurate to call her an Indian lady if she is now a US citizen.
Are you sure that's accurate? She got tenure - i.e. most likely she went from Assistant to Associate Prof not full professor .......

Check her resume, she went from assistant to associate in 2009. So now she must have become a full prof.
