Personal

I am a mathematics graduate student in my fifth year of graduate school at the University of Arizona. I am from Greeley, Colorado and went to high school in Kersey, Colorado. I got my Bachelors degree in mathematics with a minor in economics from the University of Northern Colorado. I also received my Masters degree in mathematics at the university of Arizona in the Fall of 2022 and I am currently pursuing a mathematics PhD with a minor in statistics. In my free time I like to travel and eat unique food with my fiancé, and high school sweetheart, Maria. I also enjoy reading.  Lately, I have been reading mostly science fiction. A few of my current personal favorites is the collection of short stories "Exhalation" by Ted Chiang, the novel "Permutation City" by Greg Egan, and the "Remembrance of Earth's Past" trilogy by Liu Cixin (I would be happy to receive science-fiction recommendations).  I also like to stay active and enjoy lifting weights and playing sports like basketball and volleyball.
