The Mathematical Kari is someone who likes to work with others and talk through the math. Mathematical Kari pays attention to details to make sure she doesn't make silly mistakes. I also enjoy helping others and love when students have that "aha! moment" and fully understand the concepts. I try to take every angle into consideration and make sure I am thinking about all options when figuring out saving, investment, money issues. Mathematical Kari is one side of me, there is also the Capoeira Kari, Teacher Kari, Friend Kari, etc. Who is the Mathematical You?!
