The American Mathematics Competitions are premier high school math contests that serve as precursors for the
selection of the USA International Mathematical Olympiad team.
As a member of the Advisory Panel, I contribute problems, and edit and review tests.
In Summer 2011 I will be a Graduate Student Mentor at Canada/USA Mathcamp, an intensive 5-week-long summer program for
outstandingly talented high school students. The program allows students to explore undergraduate and even graduate
and research-level math topics in a vibrant and passionate environment. My role as a mentor is to work with other
mentors in serving as an active mathematics teacher, residence counselor,
and
primary camp policy leader, setting the tone of the entire program.
Explore Math is an NSF VIGRE funded high school enrichment initiative
organized and run
solely by graduate students at UC Davis. ARML
(American Regions Mathematics League) is a national mathematics
competition for high school students held on the last weekend of May at
four sites around the United States. I was the director for the program in 2010, and was the primary
instructor for
the Northern
California ARML team in
the Winter 2009
Quarter.
I write mathematics competitions for mathleague.org, a
national program that
provides
various mathematics competitions to high school math circles. I am particularly involved with writing Sprint
competitions: 30 problem multiple choice competitions akin to the AMC-10 and AMC-12 competitions run by the
Mathematical Association of America (see AMC Mathematics
Competitions).
