Biography
Cristobal was born in the Philippines and moved to the U.S. when he was nine years old. Since then, he's moved more than a dozen times, even living in places with snow like Michigan and Nebraska -- now he's back in sunny warm California! Cristobal's main academic interests are in computational/applied partial differential equations, mathematics education, and a little bit of data science, statistics, and machine learning. Outside of academia, he likes to cook and learn new recipes from different cultures, and he dabbles in YouTube content creation.
