Connor Murphy

Majored in Physics And Math
Grove City College, Class of 2019
From Polson, MT

My name is Connor Murphy, and I grew up in a log cabin in the woods of Montana with my mother and twelve siblings. I have always enjoyed math (I know, it's kind of weird), and I love it any time I can apply mathematical or physical principles or problem solving techniques in a real-world situation. I enjoy doing physics and chemistry research, soccer, Ultimate Frisbee, Rubik's cubes, trampolines, and computer programming. I have a passion for science, and I want to pursue truth wherever it is found, even if it doesn't agree with my expectations. I hope someday to research in the field of physics (or a related discipline) to design innovative technologies and discover more about how this world works. First and last, my heart and life belong to Jesus Christ, who alone is God.
