Stephanie

Curious and creative, Stephanie has found joy in sharing her passion in math, science, and public service by creating My STEM Help. She has dedicated herself to website development, community outreach, and raised over $4,000 in donations and a community leader grant. Working with the other founding members and 40+ volunteer tutors at My STEM Help, Stephanie is super excited to have turned her initiative into a real, comprehensive education platform that has helped over 200 students from CT and NY in the past two and half years.

As co-captain of her high school math team, Stephanie led the team to win the 2022 Connecticut State Association of Math Leagues (CSAML) Championship, where she also placed 1st individually in the state. She has been selected to the 15-member CT State ARML Team for the past two years and placed 2nd in division B in the 2022 ARML national. She is also a two-time Fairfield County Math League winner, a three-time AIME qualifier, a MIT Math Prize for Girls invitee, and a recipient of the 2021 Jane Street AMC 12A certificate-- an honor given to 150 top-scoring young women in the country. Stephanie has attended Stanford University Mathematics Campus (SUMaC) for the past two summers, studying number theory, abstract algebra, and algebraic topology. She is currently independently studying MIT’s Linear Algebra and Differential Equation course at school this year. Besides math, Stephanie was named a semifinalist at the 2022 S.-T. Yau High School Science Award (North American) and given National Honorable Mention at 2022 NCWIT's Aspiration in Computing Award (AiC).

Outside of STEM, Stephanie takes her artistic talent to the Juilliard School Pre-College. She is a three-time National YoungArts Award winner, a three-time MTNA piano competition state representative, as well as a top prize winner at national and international piano competitions. Outside of concert halls, Stephanie leads a sing-along music therapy program at a local adult care center. She enjoys making music, playing badminton, hiking, and walking her cat (you can meet her during our sessions!).
