Biography
My name is Paul Martin. I received a B.S. in Physics with a Minor in Mathematics summa cum laude from Northern Arizona University. I am currently in the PhD program studying Mechanical Engineering.  In my spare time I enjoy doing CrossFit, building scale remote control airplanes, and playing outdoors.

Gk-12 Fellowship Program
For the Gk-12 program I am assisting 7th grade math on “Mr. Martin Mondays” (as named by the students) and Wednesdays at Aurora Hills Middle School. I enjoy it very much and love getting younger students interested in Math and Science.
