I am a Princeton University graduate student in mathematics, and I have staffed numerous quiz bowl tournaments including the 2013 New Jersey State Championship of the National History Bee and Bowl, the 2012 NAQT HSNCT, the IHSA Regional and Sectional Scholastic Bowl competitions, the New Trier Varsity tournaments, the IHSSBCA Kickoff and Turnabout tournaments, Vanderbilt ABC, Scobol Solo, and several others. As a player, I played for Vanderbilt from 2008 to 2012, and before that I was a player for Wheaton North (2004–08). I was a member of Team Illinois at the Panasonic Academic Challenge in 2006, 2007, and 2008; I was named to the All-America Team in 2007 and 2008. As a member of the Wheaton North team, I played at NAQT HSNCT in 2005 and 2007 and at PACE NSC in 2008. I also am interested in programming, and have two quiz bowl-related programming projects: JAGUARS (a quiz bowl reading/scoring/lockout program, with a public alpha version) and OLMEC (an online tournament data-entry, statkeeping, and management program: design notes have been sketched but no code has been written). To facilitate those projects, I am also working on computer- and human-readable markup languages for packets, scoresheets, and quiz bowl formats. Other interests of mine include trivia game shows and televised quiz bowl shows.
