Other info
- My favorite aspect of biology is the theoretical, big picture side. I've always enjoyed evolutionary theories of biology, specifically evolutionary theories of animal behavior.
- Much like my interests in biology, I enjoy the big picture, theoretical side of mathematics. The theorem-proof approach to mathematics has always come easily to me, while the applied problem solving approach has not. There have been times where I have spent hours on youtube watching videos about the Riemann zeta function or other math topics that I think are neat.
