Epithelium58, also known as Thelium is a junior and team captain at Castro Valley High School. In 7th and 8th grade, he competed at Creekside Middle School. He doesn't specialize in any events, but enjoys events based around physics and engineering. Given a kind opportunity to grade tests in 2021 by the SOAPS Invitational, he has then had the chance to enter the world of tournament volunteering. Today, he volunteers in various invitationals, writing, proctoring, and grading tests. If you ever find him in real life, he'll most likely be living the high school life, playing viola, and listening to music.

2 Harvard-Brown did not run build events
3 At Harvard-Brown, Thelium was a filler for one of the 2 Geologic Mapping students
4 Thelium did the trial event Environmental Chemistry for fun as an alternate at Troy-Athens
2019-2020 Season (9th Grade C)
This was Thelium's first year in Division C. He was also on the B-team.
