Mentoring

Polymath Jr.

I was a mentor for the Polymath Jr. program for two years. The program aims to provide an REU experience for undergraduate students who typically do not have access to traditional residential REU programs, for instance, nontraditional and international students.

• Summer 2022: I mentored students on topics relating to the geometry of Blaschke products. Our students presented their work at the 2023 Joint Mathematics Meeetings in Boston and their article has been accepted in Computational Methods and Function Theory.
• Summer 2023: I mentored students on topics relating to operators on function spaces. I focused on supporting students in our group who were located in Asia.

Guided Reading Program

I’ve been involved with Brandeis’s Guided Reading Program.

• Spring 2024: I mentored two undergraduate students in learning about Clifford algebras. The students presented what they learned to their peers in May 2024.
• Upcoming: I plan to lead a project revolving around using Monte Carlo methods in invariant theory to find invariant polynomials.

Yau Tsinghua Mathcamp

I was a coach at the 2023 Yau Tsinghua Mathcamp in Sanya, China. I mentored advanced high school students from around the world as they learned introductory linear algebra.
