Keynote title: Transitions in a mathematical career
Keynote abstract: When I began graduate school, I identified as a man who was only interested in harmonic analysis; now I am a trans woman who combines analysis, data science, and activism as a teaching professor in an applied department. In this talk, I'll tell a story about how these transitions fit together. As I discuss my path into mathematics, I'll also talk about how this field helped me find my self and my community.
