Breanna

Breanna loves math because it feels like solving a puzzle! She has a bachelor's degree in computer science and took advanced mathematics courses for her degree. She has also been a work-from-home software engineer, but she likes working in person better. Breanna enjoys working with kids and teens to improve their confidence and skills in math. She believes math is a crucial element of education because it develops students’ critical thinking, logic, and creativity, which are all needed for life outside of school. In her free time, she likes to crochet stuffed animals, eat at new restaurants, watch scary movies, and play video games (especially Zelda!).

Dan is committed to significantly increasing Las Vegas children's math skills, their understanding of math concepts and their overall school performance.
