About

My name is Tynan Kelly. I grew up in the Reno area and attended the University of Nevada, Reno for my undergraduate studies. I didn’t initially major in mathematics, (I spent a lot of time in the music department playing saxophone in the jazz bands and doing some music composition), but I kept taking math classes along the way and eventually fell in love with mathematics. After finishing my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in mathematics at UNR, I moved to the Boston area to attend Brandeis University for my Ph.D., which I received in 2015. That fall, I returned home to Reno as a full time faculty member at my alma mater. My main focus is teaching mathematics, ranging from introductory calculus courses to advanced math courses for majors.

Outside of teaching and doing mathematics, I like listening to podcasts (usually in the sports or technology genres), hanging out with my wife and dogs (we have two very cute French bulldogs named Zoey and Luna), and attending Nevada basketball games.
