See also my research supervision and my policy on letters of recommendation, as well as my book about probability for a general audience, my introductory-level probability and statistics textbook (joint with M.J. Evans), and my graduate-level probability textbook, and my article about mathematics education.

You can also read my Rant about Uncorrelated Normal Random Variables; my handouts, intended for enrichment for high school students, entitled Is it better to be born rich or lucky? and Probability and Poker; plus some related questions and the handout Gambling Games and Random Walks.
