Mentoring Experiences:
​
​
1. UCSD Enrichment program, Winter 2024.
(In this program, we meet with an undergraduate student every week to coach them in teaching high school-level mathematics. Each week, the undergraduate student meets with high school students and prepares them for higher-level mathematics.)
​
2. Iowa State Mathematics Research Teams (ISMaRT), spring 2021.
(This project has been awarded Dean’s High Impact Award for summer, 2021 in the amount of $9,600.00.)
​
3. Graduate Research Workshop in Combinatorics (GRWC), summer 2021
(GRWC is an annual two-week collaborative research workshop for advanced graduate students and post-docs from all areas of combinatorics. All participants submit an open problem in combinatorics. These problems form the basis of the collaborative research undertaken at the workshop. One-on-one mentoring with accepted participants to help them refine their submissions. Each mentor (Postdocs and faculties)will work to ensure that proposed problems strike the appropriate balance of depth and accessibility.)
