Welcome to my Portfolio!
Hello! My name is Andrew Belz. I am currently pursuing a bachelor’s degree in applied & Computational Mathematics (ACME) at Brigham Young University, and expect to graduate in the spring of 2028. At BYU, I work as a research assistant in the math department under the advisement of Dr. Benjamin Webb and Dr. Curtis Kent. I contribute to a team focused on designing and implementing topological community detection algorithms for biological neural network analysis. This research is focused on identifying robust higher-order community structures in both synthetic and real-world neural connectomes. My interests are broad but generally lie in modeling complex systems (especially networks), decision-making under uncertainty, and computational statistics. After I finish my bachelor’s degree, I aim to continue my education with a graduate degree in the quantitative sciences to pursue more exciting research opportunities.

About Me
I grew up in Simi Valley, California, and currently live in Provo, Utah. Outside of school and work, I like to spend my free time playing chess, cooking, hiking, tending to my houseplants, and birdwatching.
