Summary

I am a passionate mathematics undergraduate student hoping to chase my dream of becoming a speaker in mathematics. While chasing this dream, I am vastly interested in advocating for math research funding and policy at the federal level, while also showing the vast impactfulness of mathematics. From the day I started computational mathematics, I have realized how mathematics has an application for everything. Whether it is education, testing the boundaries of biological sciences, or even exploring complex systems in engineering, the breadth of mathematics is truly astounding. I hope to contribute to the AMS Government Relations Office’s mission to shape policy for the betterment of mathematics and society at large.
