What if we understood mathematics as full of character and stories? While most of us might not consider ourselves a “math person,” we each have an innate mathematical sense. Jacob Carter showcases math in a new and exciting light, and gives a new mathematical perspective on the world. Jacob Carter is a Bachelor of Science candidate at Georgia College, where he is studying mathematics. Upon graduating in May 2023, he will begin the Master of Arts in Teaching degree program in the John H. Lounsbury College of Education at Georgia College.
