Let me know (email) if you want any calculus or MatLAB help; I have about six years of programming experience. I don't love math, but it fascinates me endlessly. I enjoy how calculus brushes aside the constraints of lower mathematics as part of its foundation.

My degree

  • Major in Agricultural and Biological Engineering; Food Process Engineering focus
  • Major in Pharmaceutical Science
  • Minor in Economics

The purpose of this degree is to prepare me for work in biotechnology applications towards engineered agricultural and pharmaceutical products, with a specific interest in synthesized proteins. Ideally, my job description would place me in research and design of a standard for engineering biological macromolecules such that proteins, hormones, and receptor-modifying chemicals could be constructed much in the same mindset of a mechanical engineer designing gears, pulleys, and engines. I do not intend to be the top of my field; I intend to invent it. My minor in economics serves a multiple purpose: The first is my general interest and talent in the subject (I find it highly intuitive); the second is my expectation that I will need at the very least a basic understanding of economics lest I need to strike out on my own; the third is that I believe a fundamental understanding of economics is the best arbitrator in my own political consideration.

My Philosophy

If you care to fight about it, let me know. I enjoy sweeping aside arguments.

An amazing web-radio service

Try and find my station! I really recommend this, especially if you only know a few songs or musicians that you like.

Abstract algebra continues the conceptual developments of linear algebra, on an even grander scale.
