Today, we're tackling a topic that can feel a bit intimidating when teaching gifted students: math.

It's a curriculum that challenges students to think outside the box and build a true foundation in mathematics.

He earned his PhD in Sociocultural Anthropology from the University of California Santa Barbara where he conducted research, wrote, and taught about the various factors contributing to underrepresentation in STEM education and in the workforce.
