Since graduating, I've worked as a postdoc at BYU and two national laboratories, and published papers in which applying math was a central component.

I hold a BS in Physics from Brigham Young University with a math minor, a Masters of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Purdue University, and a Ph.D. in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering from Purdue University. Since graduating, I've worked as a postdoc at BYU and two national laboratories, and published papers in which applying math was a central component.

I've taught multiple calculus recitation sections (medium sized class) at Purdue, taught an acoustics class for non-Physics majors at Brigham Young University (very large class), tutored as part of tutorial labs at both Brigham Young University (where I covered the entire upper division undergraduate math core) and Purdue University, and tutored private students at both schools. Most of my students have been college-aged, with a few younger.

I've read at least three math books for fun, have participated in math competitions, and enjoy both the thrill of solving an interesting problem and that of helping others experience understanding for themselves: there's nothing quite like watching people experience insight.
