My name is Sam Johnson, and I grew up in Eden Prairie, MN -- a suburb of the Twin Cities. I have always enjoyed mathematics, and I majored in Math and Physics at Bethel University. While in college I researched particle physics in collaboration with the CMS experiment at CERN, and recently I've been working as a software engineer in the Twin Cities. In addition to academics and work I enjoy exercising outdoors, playing sports like broomball, spikeball, and basketball, reading, watching movies, and spending time with my friends and family.
