I am a 3rd year PhD candidate in mathematics at Wesleyan University working with Emily Stark. I study geometric group theory, and in particular I'm interested in the computational properties of groups. Recently, I've been thinking about Dehn functions.

Before joining Wesleyan, I worked in data analytics. I obtained a M.S. from Temple University working with Ed Letzter, and a B.S. from Appalachian State Unversity, both in mathematics.
