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.

An invitation to compete in the Science of Love competition at the Redpath Museum in Montreal. Good fun, and I get to be a judge! I designed the poster with the help from my friend Meagan Berlin, who provided the art. Not the best job ever, but a good fun quick one.
