About
Since attending Sam Houston State University I have built a firm foundation for learning and understanding mathematics and statistics. My goal is to further advance my understanding of statistics by doing a Ph.D. in Statistics and find a career where I can apply the skills I have learned. I believe that the program at SHSH has not simply prepared me to answer homework problems but to advance my knowledge to find a deeper meaning to an experiment or problem. I am a hardworking, motivated student, always working to excel in all my classes. Upon receiving my Masters in Statistics I hope to do my Ph.D. in Statistics.
