I received my BS in physics in December 2012, from the University of Washington with a 3.6 cumulative GPA. I thoroughly enjoy math and applying mathematical methods to the real world, in particular through the study of physics. One of my greatest strengths in this regard is my ability to approach a problem from multiple angles. If the first approach I suggest for a problem isn't clear to a student, I can usually come up with an alternate, sometimes more intuitive way of addressing the same problem.

Recreationally, I spend a significant fraction of my time developing my problem-solving skills with the Mathematica programming language. I also enjoy building small digital and analog circuits, for entertainment and study purposes.
