I currently attend Binghamton University, where I am enrolled in the M.A.T. in Mathematics degree program. At the end of this academic year, I will receive my M.A.T. degree and have my teaching certification in New York State. Prior to my master's degree, I received my B.A. in Mathematical Sciences from Binghamton University. I plan to use my education to pursue research in mathematical areas, as well as a career in academia.

During the school year, I participate in available independent study and research opportunities. I am also a member of Pi Lambda Phi Fraternity, where I have served as academic chair and new member educator for several years. I plan to stay active and continue my positions, as well as gaining other new positions. While in Pi Lambda Phi, I have organized and participated in many philanthropy events, such as Pi Lambda Phi Campout and Relay for Life.
