Hello all. My name is Russell and this is my late introduction. I created my cuny email and registered for the class on OpenLab today, but I’ve been here since Day 2. This and MAT 2580 are my first math classes at City Tech.

Some interesting things about me: I like to play tennis and watch movies. My favorite movie is The Dark Knight, but I would consider 12 Angry Men the ‘best’ movie I’ve ever watched, as in best written, directed, and acted. I also like to read books; my favorite is The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss, but again, not the best. That would be The Hobbit or more recently Educated by Tara Westover. Unfortunately I am not as creatively inclined as the authors I’m interested in. After graduating with degrees in Math and CS I plan to work in finance as a quantitative researcher.
