Me in New York City, by Nicole Talisay.

Abstract

Welcome to my "about-me" page! For a very brief summary, I took a very non-linear path towards my undergraduate degree, and am extremely lucky to have been supported by many people and institutions.

About Me

I am originally from Princeton, New Jersey, and found my way to higher levels of mathematics by reading about Nash's Theorem in an economics class. I've bounced around a lot academically:
