Prior to transferring to Berkeley, Harry worked as a Performance Manager at the multi-venue theater Segerstrom Center for the Arts in Costa Mesa, Orange County. Harry was born and raised in Vietnam where mathematics was taught very differently. BMC and MTRW bring back fond childhood memories when he developed his love for the blackboard and the colorful chalks.

BMC-Upper Assistant

Ovya loves the BMC because it gives young students the chance to develop a passion for math, whereas that passion may otherwise not be fostered in regular school curriculums. She will be graduating from UC Berkeley in May of 2020 with a Molecular and Cellular Biology- Genetics degree. She will be moving on to pursue a 1 year Master's of Public Health at The Dartmouth Institute of Health Policy and Clinical Practice before hopefully heading to medical school. 

Update May 2021- Ovya will be attending Dartmouth's Geisel School of Medicine in the fall of 2021.
