Communication
I think one of the most important tools in helping students discover and live their purpose is getting them to understand not to take their experiences for granted. In teaching critical thinking, we often privilege this action as questioning but it can be a part of the creative process, too. As the British writer Neil Gaiman said, 'You can take for granted that people know more or less what a street, a shop, a beach, a sky, an oak tree look like. Tell them what makes this one different.'

Mathematics
Cal Lutheran gave me a lot of valuable opportunities to be involved within the Mathematics department, such as being a tutor, researcher, and departmental assistant. Influential courses that I took in this program, like Real Analysis, solidified my decision to pursue a PhD in Pure Mathematics.

Physics
Physics is the primordial science that tries to understand and model the "why?", "how?" and "when?" of our universe. As a curious person, this everlasting quest for answers drew me to physics. At Cal Lutheran, the physics department gave me the instruction and opportunities to become a great experimentalist through numerous hands-on experiences.
