Outreach
At UCLA I mentor undergraduate students through UCLA's Women in Mathematics mentorship program. I am also a faculty resource for UCLA's Curtis Center and occasionally assist with the UCLA Olga Radko Endowed Math Circle.
At UIUC from 2018--2022, I served as Outreach Manager and a Research Leadership Team Member for the IML (formerly IGL). In this position, I coordinated outreach events, trained undergraduates, and facilitated activities as well as oversaw IML research logistics. Additionally in Fall 2018, I founded the IML Undergraduate Outreach Organization to involve undergraduates in our outreach activities. I also contributed to the AWM chapter events of Sonia Math Day and Getting Engaged in Math and Science (GEMS).
