About the author
Dr. Kit Cheung has lived, studied and worked in different places, from the fun yet hustle and bustle cities of Hong Kong and Singapore, to awesome Royal Mile in Edinburgh, Scotland, then to fairytale-like Cambridge in England, and later to Baltimore, the crab cake capital of the world, before settling in the garden state, New Jersey, of the U.S.A. Dr. Cheung likes to travel to different places in Asia, Europe, and Australasia, to meet different people, to learn about different cultures and is fascinated by different folk stories from different areas.

Dr. Lorna Ayton spends half of her time teaching A-Level students at a private high school in Cambridge and the other half of her time in the University of Cambridge Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, where she uses mathematical model-ling to develop new technologies to reduce aircraft noise. Dr. Ayton was admitted to Churchill College, University of Cambridge, in 2007 to study B.A. Mathematics (graduated with First Class Honors), followed by Part III Mathematics (graduated with Distinction), and then for a Ph.D. in Mathematics which she completed in 2014. Dr. Ayton's Ph.D. thesis: "Asymptotic Approximations for the Sound Generated by Aerofoils in Unsteady Subsonic Flows" is awarded "Outstanding Thesis Prize" by Springer. Dr. Ayton ensures that fundamental mathematics concepts are well applied in the games and learning mathematics can be fun and rewarding. Dr. Ayton designs and reviews games for CAMathories™.
