Pi expert, math professor, and former Forbes author on pi is available to discuss pi ahead of Pi Day on 3/14.

Kevin Knudson, a math professor and former Forbes contributor on all things math, is available to discuss pi and Pi Day. 

Dr. Knudson wrote a six part series for Forbes on pi: It’s history, discovery, use in modern life like quantum mechanics, and memorization and calculation of its digits. For Pi Day this year, Dr. Knudson has prepared a couple activities that allow anyone to estimate pi using nothing more than a box of toothpicks.
