## Caption

“When students tell me they used to be afraid of math but now enjoy it, that’s incredibly rewarding. I know many people carry bad math experiences, but I believe hard work matters more than innate talent. If you’re willing to put in effort—you’ll succeed. 

Teaching itself is performative: engaging students requires creativity and a willingness to embrace other parts of myself beyond math. Art keeps me balanced and reinforces that stepping outside your comfort zone is essential.” #HumansOfTheU
