Introduction
Hi all! As my user name suggest, I love physics. I recently attained two B.S. degrees one in physics with a concentration in theoretical physics, and the other is in pure mathematics. I like to try to explain hard to understand physical concepts to people that may have no formal training in the physical sciences.

Education
1. Bachelors of Science in physics with a concentration in theoretical physics. Louisiana State University in Shreveport

2. Bachelors of Science in pure mathematics. Louisiana State University in Shreveport

Relevant Course Work
The courses I have completed in my undergraduate work are, but are not limited to:

Physics
Classical Mechanics, Electromagnetism, Quantum Mechanics, Astrophysics, Thermal (otherwise known as statistical) Mechanics, Optics, Modern Physics, Mathematical Modeling of Physical Phenomena using Mathematica.

Chemistry
Physical Chemistry (otherwise known as quantum chemistry), Polymer Chemistry, Advanced Inorganic Chemistry (chemistry of the transition metals).

Mathematics
Linear Algebra, Single and Multi-Variable Calculus, Ordinary and Partial Differential Equations, Complex Analysis, Graph Theory, Set Theory, Topology, Advanced Calculus, Abstract Algebra

Completed Research
1. Numerical solutions to various partial differential equations by means of finite differences

2. The measurement of the galactic rotation curve using Doppler shift and a SRT (small radio telescope)

Current Research
Currently I am gearing up for grad school, however; I am self studying General Relativity and helping other physics undergrads complete various research activities at Louisiana State University in Shreveport.

Future Plans and Interest
I am currently planning on pursuing a Ph.D at Baylor University. The field of physics in which I want to study is string/M theory.
