About

I was pursuing a Ph.D. in physics, and I dropped out of the program.

What stayed with me was how I like to learn: from first principles. I was never satisfied with just being handed a formula. I wanted to know why the dot product is defined the way it is, why the cross product is defined the way it is, and how the trigonometric identities are derived.

This site is where I work through those questions, one step at a time, so that each result feels inevitable rather than memorized.
