Service and Leadership

Mentoring

1. I am serving as a graduate coach for the CSU Putnam club, starting Fall 2023. Here are the materials from the problem solving session I led on number theory.

2. I am currently mentoring a high school student from Bangladesh on a summer independent study. Stay tuned for their project on the N-body problem!

3. I was a Twoples mentor in Fall 2022. My mentee Jessica Wang made this awesome expository video on Category Theory as her final presentation. Check it out!

Service, Leadership and Outreach

1. Here is a blog post I wrote for the MAA Math Values grad student column, based on some experiences in grad school.

2. I am co-organizing the RNT session at MAA MathFest 2024. Come find me in Indianapolis!

3. I co-organized the Front Range Number Theory Day in October 2023 at CSU.

4. I led two Math Circle sessions while at UMich:
   The myth of Prometheus: a prime time (Winter 2023) -  Modular arithmetic and p-adic numbers.
   TARDIS adventures: Skips and Hops across the universe (Fall 2021)  -  Euclidean Algorithm.

5. I was a member of the grant-writing team for FEMMES at UMich, which attempts to improve gender and racial diversity in STEM via outreach activities aimed at middle-school students from school districts with fewer resources. I coordinated various science experiments.

6. I served as an intersectional representative for international students at the mathematics department of UMich through the Graduate Student Advisory Council. We implemented changes to the Qualifying Review examination system to address the leaky pipeline problem in academia at the junior graduate level.

7. I was a founding member of the Climate and Diversity Committee in the Physics Department at UCSC, and served as a Student Mental Health Ambassador. I was awarded the Marilyn Stevens Physics Undergraduate Scholarship (2019-2020) in recognition of academic achievements together with leadership and service.
