Mathematical games and puzzles were what drew Tony Wong into mathematics in the first place. Prior to college, he competed in numerous mathematics competitions at the international level. With this background, he is passionate in providing training for students to participate in mathematics competitions. He also serves the community by organizing outreach activities for middle school and high school students, especially for underprivileged students. In research, he actively engages students in his projects with publications on reputable journals.
