...and Molecular Engineering. My goal is to help students reach the point where they won't just be able to ace exams, but will in fact be able to teach material back to me, since that is the sign of true understanding. When I see someone's face light up when a complicated set of ideas is distilled into a viscerally understandable (and exciting!) bite-sized concept, I get a sense of fulfillment like nothing else. Learning math...

My other interests include basketball, badminton, and making music.

...I consider it an honor to have the opportunity to have studied it for my undergraduate degree. I believe that my success as a student studying mathematics stems from the passion I have for the subject. For the majority of people, math isn't the type of subject one can simply read a book on and understand how to solve the problems. It takes hard work over a long period of time, making mistakes and working...
