Brief Biographical Sketch:

Alex first realized he was good at math when he was first in his class in the California Math League competitions in sixth grade. Five years later, he was the president of his high school math club, and had the opportunity to teach what he had learned (both about problem-solving and other miscellaneous bits of math) to other students. Now, he is getting that chance again.

In his other interests, Alex is an archetypal nerd, into video games and MtG, science fiction, science in general, politics, and sustainability. He has worked on CueCard, an artificial intelligence agent for playing eight-ball against other computers, and is currently working on a General Game-Playing agent. He is a lifelong Bay Area resident.
