A lot of the other college students didn't realize my age when I started taking full-time classes at Stark State College when I was 14 years-old.

During the four years of high school you have to take classes that fit certain requirements. So we found classes at Stark State that would also go towards high school, and discovered that if I were to take full class loads for two years, or four semesters, I would be able to graduate high school two years early.

During college, the classes I enjoyed the most were math, for two reasons. Firstly because I really enjoy math. And secondly, the professor on my calculus courses was one of the best teachers I've ever seen. The enthusiasm he had for the class was really contagious. It inspired me to put even more effort into what I was doing.

I plan to attend The College of Wooster to study for an undergraduate degree in pure mathematics next. And from there, I plan to get into graduate school for my doctorate, at either Harvard University or Massachusetts Institute of Technology —those were always my dream schools. My eventual goal is to teach mathematics at an Ivy League school.

But I can also teach someone if they don't understand something. I guess the best example is when people are studying for an exam, and there's that one concept they can't figure out. If you can clarify that and then see that"Aha!" moment on their face, it just feels good.
