Jonah M. (IN A NUTSHELL)

Jonah discovered his love for mathematics in the old textbooks that his high school teachers gave him. These books exposed Jonah to various advanced fields of mathematics, such as abstract algebra and set theory. They also prepared him for the proof-based mathematics that is ubiquitous in college, a skill that high school, unfortunately, hardly teaches its students. Jonah spent his weekends at the National Air and Space Museum, where he educated visitors on the physics of flight and space. The hours spent at the museum gave him experience teaching people of all ages, from plane-obsessed children to curious adults. There is nothing more fulfilling for Jonah than seeing a visitor share in his enthusiasm and understand a new concept. Jonah is currently on a year-off after his first year at Brown University, where he is concentrating in Mathematics with a possible second concentration in English. In his first year, he took upper-level courses in abstract algebra, number theory, and real analysis. Jonah has participated in directed reading programs on representation theory and algebraic combinatorics in the math and applied math departments, respectively. Despite his intense focus on mathematics, Jonah also has experience with physics and robotics. He was the mechanical and design lead of his high school robotics team. Each year, Jonah used CAD software such as Solidworks. Then he directed its fabrication and construction. Whether it is math, physics, or even literature, Jonah is excited to help you take your knowledge to the next level.
