Patricia DiJoseph
was born in 1983 in Princeton, New Jersey, and lived in
Quakertown, Pennsylvania until emigrating to Woodbridge, New Jersey,
at the age of two, where she has resided ever since. She attended
Bishop George Ahr High School in Edison and is enrolled in the Honors
Program at Rutgers University. Her intended major is Mathematics,
with a minor in Art History.
Patricia's parents are both Rutgers College graduates. Her mother,
Clare McCartin-DiJoseph, is a fourth-grade public school teacher, and
her father, John DiJoseph, is a research scientist; she intends to
follow neither of their careers. Patricia has
one older and one younger sister, both generally tolerable.
Patricia toured Alaska with her family at the age of thirteen and
has been to California numerous times to visit her father's side of
the family. She is hoping to study abroad in Italy in her junior
year. For as long as she can recall, Patricia has had a
strong interest in mathematics.
