NSC Writing Specialist Hugo Virrueta

Hello,
My name is Hugo Virrueta. I am currently a sophomore working towards a bachelor’s degree in Mathematics with a minor in Business Administration. I really enjoy the critical thinking and problem-solving aspects of math. I’ve learned that when faced with a challenging problem, there are always a multitude of ways of reaching a solution, and the process in which you reach a solution is just as important as the solution itself.
​
My interest in writing grew after taking my English courses here at Nevada State. I fell in love with the idea of writing as a process. Everyone has their own unique process of organizing and conveying their thoughts into writing to solve a problem. In that sense, math and writing are very similar because the process is just as important as the product you produce. With that, my goals as a specialist are to further develop and improve my writing as well as help students developed and improve their
own process.
