Since I have participated a lot of mathematics competitions during the high school, I am interested to pursue more about pure mathematics. Click here to find my list of all classes, some lecture note, research, and college mathematics competitions!
I was a silver medalist from International Mathematical Olympiad 2014, 2015, and 2016. Because now I do not have a chance to participate the competition again, I would like to share some interesting problems and techniques I often used during the competition.

Before I went to the college, I was never interested in Economics at all. After enrolling Econ 101 in the freshman year, I was suddenly interested in economics, so I decided to pursue more about economics. Click here to find my list of all classes and some lecture note!
