Non-Mathematical Interests
I’m fascinated by linguistics and the history of language. I also love learning languages. I speak / am studying:
> English (Natively)
> Modern Hebrew (Fluently)
> Spanish (Advanced Intermediate)
> Catalan (Advanced Intermediate)
> French (Intermediate, but rusty)
> Yiddish (Intermediate)
> Mandarin (Low Intermediate , ~ 汉语考试水平四级)
> Russian (Elementary)
I also have experience reading old Jewish languages, like Biblical Hebrew and Judeo-Aramaic.
I am also deeply interested in the history and practice of cooking. A few favorites from my travels:
