Luc studied mathematics and German at Grinnell College and is currently working on his Masters in Teaching at Augsburg University. Fascinated by mechanical things, he is constantly wondering: How does that work?! This question has propelled his hobby of building elaborate and functional K’nex contraptions such as a loom, a player piano, and a rotary press. He was honored to bring his most recent creation, a mechanical calculator, to the Minnesota State Fair as a part of the annual Math On-A-Stick installation. Luc is always looking for math to engage with and is keenly interested in making beautiful mathematical ideas accessible at the middle and high school level. This year, he has been raving about the “Algebra of Socks” to anyone who will listen. He is excited to be teaching at MITY for the first time this summer!
