Then mathematics happened.

Let's just say the numbers weren't adding up. I'd look at 1 + 1 and somehow see 3. Mathematics kept insisting it was 2. We clearly had different ideas about how things should work.

But you can always bet on people.

So I took another route and studied Sociology and Anthropology. What felt like a detour became a different way of understanding the world: how people behave, how societies take shape, how culture influences decisions, and how the things we create shape the way we live.

Turns out, understanding people is a pretty interesting way to think about the future, too.
