First math class at Swarthmore:  I took MATH 015 my freshman fall semester.

What was your favorite math class and why?  My favorite math class at Swarthmore so far has been MATH 034 because I found the content very interesting. Specifically, discussing objects in higher dimensions that we cannot visualize.

Why did you become a math major?  The professors in the math department have always been very encouraging and welcoming and I find the content interesting. I also like to challenge myself and would like to use math in my career.

How do you expect to use your mathematics after leaving Swarthmore?  I hope to combine my love for math and technology with my creative side in my future career.
