Hometown: John Day, Ore.

Major: Mathematics

Why did you apply to become an ASTEO Scholar? 

“I applied because I have a strong interest in mathematics, and working full-time while attending school full-time was a challenge. The ASTEO scholarship made it so I don’t have to work full-time anymore.”

What are you looking forward to the most at EOU? 

“Math Club, as well as my capstone project throughout the year. I love the small class sizes and how much interest the math professors show in the success of their students.”
