ACTIVITY DOSSIER — JIAMING “TERRY” GUO

TERRY GUO

I fly drones, do competition mathematics, and run things. What follows is the whole record — the wins, the clubs, the classrooms, and the paperwork behind them. Nothing here is a summary. Every card carries the photograph, the certificate or the letter it came from, and any of them opens.

AERIAL — DRONES & ROBOTICS

It began in 2023 with one quad that wouldn't hold altitude and a drawer of dead ESCs. Three years later a team from Greater Vancouver flew to San Diego, against more than a hundred teams and over four hundred competitors, and came home with the world title. Between those two points: a qualifier where we took three championships in a day, a robotics world cup in South Korea, and a club I started so that the next kid doesn't have to figure it out alone.

MATH & CODE

Competition mathematics is the other half of the same habit — sitting with a problem until it gives. Four AIME qualifications, a USAMO invitation, and a gold division in competitive programming. Then the part that matters more: teaching it, and running the competitions so that other students get the same shot.
