Andrew Perkins
Personal Trainer
I am a student at Old Dominion University, majoring in Supply Chain, Logistics, and Maritime Operations. I have always been very inquisitive and eager to discover easier, more comprehensible ways to solve complex math problems. I am the oldest of 3 boys and have helped my younger brothers with their math homework since they started school! I am eager to give back to the Hampton Roads community by helping students on their math discovery! My favorite number is 100 because it reminds me of getting a good grade on an assignment!
Miles McKenzie
Personal Trainer
I am a senior at Norfolk Academy. Math has always been my favorite subject, and I am currently taking calculus. I have one younger sister, and I often help her with her math homework. I participate in a few different math competitions throughout the year, and the CNU competition is one of my favorites, because the school assembles a group and we go together, which is always fun. My favorite number is 3, because it’s the magic number.
Lileigh Campbell
Personal Trainer
Math has always been my favorite subject and helping others has always been my favorite hobby, so I found myself helping others with math. I have enjoyed it every step of the way. On top of my job, I am always the first to get up in front of my class at school to help them understand the math concepts when they’re confused. My favorite number is pi because of its never ending numbers.
