I love math. However, my first grader is pretty good at math, but he hates it. He enjoys nearly everything else we do as part of his homeschool day, but he groans when I say it’s time for math.

I never imagined as a kid that I would grow up to be a rocket scientist (or more officially, a space propulsion engineer). I didn’t dream that I would be able to attend two of the best schools in the U.S. (Caltech and Stanford) and have most of my education funded through scholarships. Even as old ...
