Meet the Team at Mathnasium of St. Michael

Kacie Carlsted

I am a graduate of Augsburg College, where I received my Bachelor of Science in Mathematics. Prior to working at Mathnasium, I spent five years in several different schools as a MN Math Corps tutor and as a paraprofessional. I absolutely love working with students on their math. "Aha!" moments are my favorite part of the job! When I am not working today, I enjoy participating in things at church; I am a member of both the Wright County Chamber Chorus and the wRight Ringers Handbell Ensemble; I enjoy acting with community theaters in the area; and I love spending time with my dogs and my family. One fun little math puzzle about myself is that my three siblings happen to be twin brothers... Can you figure it out? :)

Lisa

I am a homeschool mother of four children. I graduated from Wheaton College with a Bachelor of Science in chemistry. I enjoy math because of its logical nature and the fundamental puzzle it presents. I discovered the laws of physics at a very young age when I jumped off an RV and broke my ankle. I hope that the students I work with enjoy learning math as much as I do, but don’t decide to test the laws of physic as I did!

Levi

I am a junior at STMA High School. I enjoy math because it is very logical and there is a reason behind everything. I love camping, geocaching and photography (anything outdoors). I like working with kids because of the "light-bulb" moment when they understand something. During the summer, I enjoy participating in marching band and going on mission trips, where we repair houses, build wheelchair ramps, and paint for those who need it.

Mya

I am currently a senior at St. Michael-Albertville High School. This fall, I will go to Winona State, where I plan to major in Exercise Science with the intention of going into Occupational or Physical Therapy. I currently play club volleyball at Crossfire Volleyball on their 17-1's team. My favorite thing about math is that there is always a right answer, and it doesn't keep you guessing. In my free time I love boating at my cabin in Crosslake, MN.

Taylor

Hi, I'm Taylor! I am a senior at STMA this year. When I graduate from high school, I plan to go to college with a career goal of pediatric medicine. In my spare time, I enjoy participating in speech at school and reading books. I think a good math education is important because it is important in other subjects, it is universal, and it encourages logical reasoning. I enjoy working at Mathnasium because I like helping kids understand math.

Jacob

Hey, I'm Jacob! I am a high school graduate, currently taking a few college classes.
