Prismata

I am no longer with the company, and I am forever indebted to my co-founders, for their continued dedication to keeping our favorite game running, and their cooperation in letting me amiably leave the start-up and chase my academic passion.

Poker

I'm a former instructor at Cardrunners, a poker training site with videos.

Back when I used to play professionally, I played mostly online. PocketFives tracks my online poker results, while my Hendon Mob profile tracks my live poker results.

Here is a talk about how poker has helped me make better decisions in life, which I've given at Google New York, Riot Games, and the MIT Entrepreneurship Center.

Math Coaching

I founded the Olympic Math Program at Grand River Chinese School. I also founded the Nine Chapters on Mathematical Art Contest (NCC), for which I continue to serve as a member of the problems committee:

• NCC '08
• NCC '09
• NCC '10
• NCC '11
• NCC '12
• NCC '13
• NCC '14
• NCC '15

I was a coach for the Canadian ARML team in 2008.
