I recently graduated from Pomona College with a bachelor’s degree in mathematics and I’m interested in using and applying my mathematical skills in data science, optimization, or other analytics and programming. I’m hardworking and work well within a team and I’m constantly interested in effectively teaching, communicating, and applying mathematical concepts. EDUCATION

WORK EXPERIENCE

Archivsuisse, Bern, Switzerland Summer 2015, 2016

Helped streamline the digital archiving process. Projects included integrating the client-side website with archiving database. Used Python, Lua, Javascript and CSS/HTML. IT Services Pomona College, Claremont, CA 2014-2017 Worked the front desk of the IT services at Pomona college and helped with IT issues. PERSONAL

Along with being interested in most things math – pure math, applied math, and statistics, I’m also interested in environmental issues, economics, politics, and philosophy. I played water polo and rugby at Pomona and this summer I biked through Europe with a friend for 2 months. Recently a paper relating algebraic topology and neurology has fascinated me.
