What is your favorite childhood meal?
This sounds pretty basic… but its just rice and corn with butter.
What is your favorite thing about math?
I like how abstract it is, and when you’re doing math problems for fun, there are no real consequences. You get to just have fun with the puzzle.
When did you get into working out?
I’ve kind of always been into it. Especially during my time in the army. I set goals in the beginning of 2022 and I was going to accomplish them.
What is your favorite bulking meal from the dining hall?
Probably Sunday brunch. You just load it up with eggs and waffles, and… yeah.
What Personal Record are you proudest of?
At the end of 2022, I hit 5 sets of 6 reps squatting 315 pounds. This year I want to do the same but with 415 pounds.
Favorite hobby other than working out?
I like playing the piano.
What is your all time favorite movie?
I like Forrest Gump. It teaches you how to look for the simpler things in life that are so overlooked.
Is it true that you failed Algebra in high school? If so, what drove you to want to teach it?
I did fail Algebra in high school. Why did I want to teach it… that’s a good question. I think I just wanted to be there in case other students didn’t necessarily like it. I didn’t when I first took it, so I want to be able to teach people the fun parts that are in it.
