Hi.

I’m Victoria, and this site mostly has my sewing projects and science writing, with a sprinkling of older poetry & etc.

I’m a prairie kid, parent of two, celiac, and like lane swimming. I love to research. I did my undergrad in physics & English with a math minor. I’m now doing a Master’s in economics.

A note about the blog title: in math and physics, the prefix eigen means one's own. It comes from the german, but mostly I always liked thinking about a particle's eigenvalues, and thought I might apply the same thought to my excursions.

My cousin Ethan came over (he's 13) and we made his first video game ever! I'm real rusty with Scratch but I think it turned out just fine. Press space to start, and use your cursor to move the baseball bat. Don't let the ball hit the bottom or game over!
