It thrills me to see a young person's face light up when it finally hits them how math works and is useful in the things they're passionate about. I believe that a solid understanding of mathematics is foundational in our ability to make good life choices, equipping us to live lives with greater independence and accomplishment of our goals. I graduated from St. John's University with a B.A. in Mathematics and continued with a master’s Program in Manufacturing Systems Engineering at the University of St. Thomas. Math has been indispensable throughout my career in engineering and management and is also quite useful in my business and family life.

Mya is currently a freshman at Winona State University, where I am majoring in Exercise Science with the intention of going into Occupational Therapy. Volleyball is my favorite sport, and I have played at Crossfire Youth Sports on their top team for the past three years. Since graduating, I now coach all age groups throughout the summer and winter. 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 exercising, hiking, exploring new coffee shops, and boating at my cabin in Crosslake, MN.
