Passion for Math
“I came to UWGB originally doing engineering and realized that I loved the core of math within it more, so I steered back to math...My favorite course was probably Applied Regression Analysis. We just worked collaboratively a lot together, so it was very tight-knit, and I got to become very close to the other people in my class, which was super important to me. You know, Calc 3 sounds very daunting. You hear calculus, and everybody kind of gets a little nervous, but Calculus 3 can be really fun, and that was probably one of my favorites, too."
