World Science Scholars
World Science Scholars selects a small group of high school students with extraordinary mathematical talent and provides them with an unparalleled opportunity to apply their abilities to unexplored disciplines. I have taken the following courses:
Non-Trivial Fellowship
I was selected as 1 of 100 global scholars from 20,000+ applications (<0.5% acceptance rate) for the Non-Trivial Fellowship—an 8-week long online fellowship for young people to start an impactful research, policy, or entrepreneurial project—where I received the Non-Trivial fellowship's support and guidance to study key issues like AI alignment and existential risk mitigation to make a lasting impact on the world.
Stanford Pre-Collegiate Summer Institutes
I completed a 2-week course on 'Logic and Problem Solving' as part of the Stanford Pre-Collegiate Summer Institutes, where I engaged with lectures, live meetings, officer hours, assigned readings, group work, and pre-recorded online lectures. Course content included logic, combinatorics, inequalities, probability, number theory, geometry, algorithms, and puzzles.

Stanford Math Circle
I participated in the Stanford Math Circle in the Fall and Winter quarter sessions, wherein I attended lectures by Nobel-laureates, distinguished professors, and industry-leaders on a wider range of noncurricular mathematical topics. These included Hamming Codes, Multiplicative functions, Auction Theory, Gerrymandering, Set Theory, and Impartial and Combinatorial Games.
