I spent 3 years teaching at a private school and 3 years teaching in a public school. I decided to join Mathnasium in 2022 where I am enjoying the opportunity to see students grow in mathematical confidence and ability at a one on one level. I love spending time with my husband, working puzzles, playing board games, and going to the movies.

Brian Sorenson

My name is Brian Sorenson. I am a Navy brat that was born in Okinawa, Japan and moved all around the United States as I grew up. My mother was an accountant for Ernst & Young, and with her guidance I was always ahead of my peers in Mathematics. I enjoyed helping others in my classes and continued tutoring while I was in college. I attended Auburn University to study Building Science/Construction Management, but I came back to my High School home town in Georgia to obtain my Bachelor's of Science degree in Mathematics from Kennesaw State University. I planned on being an Actuary, but instead helped my then wife start and run an animal rescue. I have since worked in various construction and manufacturing jobs in the Atlanta area. My lifelong passion has been music. I started playing piano and trumpet when I was young. I then played bass guitar in a rock band throughout high school and after graduating toured the country for a couple years before going to college. In my spare time I take road trips on my motorcycle and play my guitar.

Carson Grubbs

My name is Carson Grubbs, I am a current junior attending Oak Mountain High School. I have been on the math team at my high school all three (and going to be) four years. I have already been math tutoring on the side, but also I love to help people as well. Joining Mathnasium was inevitable as I love to not only work math problems, but to help kids understand challenging problems. Nothing more rewarding then an “ohhh I finally understand this.” Once I graduate, I plan on majoring in mathematics and becoming a teacher. Mathnasium is just one more step that allows me to not only get to that dream, but allow students to have a similar successful experience and passion in math.
