Activities and Community

I firmly believe in the axioms of teaching mathematics created by Federico Ardila:

  1. Mathematical potential is distributed equally among different groups, irrespective of geographic, demographic, and economic boundaries.

  2. Everyone can have joyful, meaningful, and empowering mathematical experiences.

  3. Mathematics is a powerful, malleable tool that can be shaped and used differently by various communities to serve their needs.

  4. Every student deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.

I helped plan a hackathon-style event for students at the Claremont Colleges called Hack for Black Lives.

Black Lives at Mudd

I served as BLAM co-president in the 2020-2021 school year.

Pictures of some those in my mathematics community from MSRI-UP, including some of my math mentors: Dr. Marissa Loving, Dr. Pamela E. Harris, Joseph Rennie, Dr. Rebecca Garcia, and Dr. Gordon Rojas Kirby.

Check out the other students of MSRI-UP 2019, who make up a large portion of my math family: https://www.msri.org/web/msri/education/for-undergraduates/msri-up/2019/people.


I returned to MSRI-UP as a TA in 2022 and got to meet all these amazing people!
