Quan as a mathematician Mathematics- Mathematics is a subject I have been interesting in for quiet some time. Being a mathematician is definitely something I would look farther into. Most theoretical mathematicians also spend most of their time teaching, and I would actually love that. So, I will be doing a little more digging on this career.
