About Zeynep

Why “Dr. (to be)”?

Because the PhD in mathematics is almost done — the “(to be)” is her students keeping her honest. The “Sunshine” part they added on their own: she brings light to the dark corners of math, and lectures end in smiles more often than not.

She's taught middle schoolers scared of fractions, seniors staring down exams, uni students wrestling linear algebra, and adults coming back after years away. Everyone gets the same three things: patience, good light, and a smile on the way out.
