About Me

I grew up here in Cache Valley and really enjoy the area. I love learning about and teaching mathematics. I enjoy sharing the fun that comes from the more exploratory and creative side of upper division mathematics. Outside of mathematics my hobbies primarily include music, video games, and science.

Why I Came to USU

Much of my family went to USU, and so it was natural for me to come to USU for my undergraduate degree as well. I made lots of connections here at USU, and so once it came time for my Masters, I just stuck around again!
