Bio
Aubrey (he/him) teaches mathematics at Harvard College and Division of Continuing Education. He has written for publications including the New York Times, Boston Globe, and Nautilus. He technically “worked on Wall Street” but only in the same sense that a hot dog vendor does. He is a parent, a spouse, and a resident of the City of Boston with an Erdős number of three.
He dropped out of high school in Dallas to study math and statistics at The University of Chicago, later receiving a doctorate in mathematics from UC Berkeley in 2008.
