Bio

Ever since I was little I loved doing puzzles. Whether it be doing a jigsaw puzzle, a sudoku problem, or even a crossword puzzle, I was always determined to be able to solve it. This is what drew me to math, as there is always something that needs to be solved. Starting with algebra and continuing on through higher leveled courses, this love has only grown, especially being able to see how it can be used in real world applications. I would love to be able to pursue a degree in mathematics so I can continue this love for solving puzzles in my future career.
