Jill Dalenberg Thompson

I am a mathematician, writer, and photographer. I was born and raised near Chicago and now live in Michigan, where I've spent the last twenty years. I believe trees can speak, travel often, have a love-hate relationship with any form of GPS, and prefer to stay in B&B's. My passion is for writing essays and poetry; my favorite light is dawn.  

"If you want to see something beautiful, open your eyes."

I spent the first fifteen years of my professional life as an actuary and the next seventeen as a teacher. Since leaving the teaching profession, I have focused primarily on writing. My most recent project was a contract writing statistics curriculum for an online educational content provider. My expertise lies in quantitative and qualitative data analysis, but I am best known for my ability to communicate complex ideas with clarity. If you would like to know more about my professional background, please visit me on LinkedIn.
