Eric is an artist and educator with over fifteen years of experience teaching math and a lifelong passion for the synthesis of mathematics and the arts. He is a proponent of Buckminster Fuller’s theory of comprehensivity which posits that a deeper wisdom can be gained by pursuing several fields of study and identifying links between them. Accordingly, his areas of interest and expertise are myriad – while his undergraduate studies at UC Santa Cruz were in Linguistics with a focus on speech technology, his greatest passions are for mathematics, electronic music production, and digital arts/creative coding. He maintains a profound enthusiasm for teaching, with the ongoing goal of presenting mathematical problem solving as an open-ended and creatively enriching process.
