Tell us a fun fact about yourself!

Hello,
My name is Jason Holloway and I am the instructor for your Online Statistics course. I believe that Statistics is a math course that can be applied to all majors and degrees. Whether you a sports coach or a small business owner, there are many ways you can use Statistics to make sense out of data or make a prediction about something in a population or group. It is my goal to make this course make your start thinking like statistician and view the world through data.

When I am not teaching, I enjoy hanging out with my 15-year-old son and rooting for him at his wrestling matches. I enjoy listening to music watching movies and being in nature with my dog Blu. As I get older, I’ve found that I enjoy watching sporting events at home more than in-person because I need instant replay and commercial breaks. Walks to concessions or the bathroom in arenas can be a lot sometimes!

Two fun facts about me – 1. My favorite meal of the day to cook or eat is Breakfast. Its usually quick to make and there are so many ways you can imagine it. 2. I really enjoy yoga! I haven’t practiced in a while, but it is a great way to challenge your body at any level of fitness.
