Wendy Cho is a Professor at the University of Illinois where she has appointments in Political Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Asian American Studies, Law, and at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications. Mathematics is the tie that holds together her eclectic interests. She has loved math all her life, but really discovered its beauty when she started teaching math to her sons, who love math even more than she does! Her sons wanted to do math with other kids, so she began her own math circle and started teaching at math summer camps. Her mathematical journey has been immensely fulfilling and has taught her that sharing mathematical beauty (especially with children) is the surest and quickest way to multiply its appreciation and joy.

Daniel Heath earned his Ph. D. in mathematics at the University of California at Davis, where he specialized in a branch of geometric topology related to the study of knots and knotting. He did postdoctoral work at Nara Women’s University, and taught pre-college math and science for The Minnesota Academy of Math & Science and Escuela e Instituto Bilingüe El Alba before coming to Pacific Lutheran University, where he is a professor of mathematics. Outside of mathematics, he has many interests and hobbies. He is an avid bicyclist, backpacker, and forager. He also combines mathematics with paper engineering and woodworking.

Cheng Jin obtained his undergraduate degree at Northwestern University and has a master’s in mathematics from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. He has been involved with Epsilon Camp since 2017 as a counselor, lead counselor, and assistant faculty, and he looks forward to returning to this wonderful community of math enthusiasts! Currently a high school math teacher, Cheng has a passion for teaching, mentoring, and inspiring future mathematicians. In his free time, Cheng enjoys playing chess, pool, basketball, and traveling!

Dan Pritikin is a Professor of Mathematics at Miami University, in Oxford, Ohio. His B.A. is from Pomona College, and his Ph.D. is from University of Wisconsin - Madison. His research areas are graph theory, combinatorics, combinatorial game theory, and recreational mathematics. He became interested in math from learning a bit of game theory, continued fractions, and other math recreations through math club starting in 7th grade. He has lots of experience writing math competition problems and coaching students at improving themselves at math, whether concerning high school or college level math competitions, or preparing for the GRE Math Subject Test (at which students applying to math Ph.D. programs often struggle). He plays trumpet, guitar, basketball and bridge, not all at the same time.

Beata Randrianantoanina is a Professor of Mathematics at Miami University in Ohio. She did her Master’s at the Warsaw University in Poland and her Ph.D. at the University of Missouri. Her research is in linear and nonlinear geometric functional analysis. She co-authored a research monograph and regularly publishes in professional journals. Her passion for mathematics started in early elementary school when she was exposed to an “experimental” module on counting in bases different than 10, and blossomed when she met geometry in middle school. She is very fortunate to have had many enthusiastic teachers who introduced her to the beauty of discovering mathematics. She wants to share her never-ending wonder of mathematics with as many people as she can.

Scotty Tilton is a 4th-year Ph.D. student at UC San Diego, aiming to become a professor in algebraic topology. His research applies physics-inspired invariants to understand four-dimensional manifold mappings. A Montana native, Scotty's early engagement in math competitions and math circles profoundly shaped his academic path.
