Welcome! I am a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics. I completed my Ph.D. in mathematics at the University of Georgia in 2022, and my B.A. in mathematics at Saint Louis University in 2016.

I subscribe to Federico Ardila’s axioms:

  1. Mathematical potential is distributed equally among different groups, irrespective of geographic, demographic, and economic boundaries.
  2. Everyone can have joyful, meaningful, and empowering mathematical experiences.
  3. Mathematics is a powerful, malleable tool that can be shaped and used differently by various communities to serve their needs.
  4. Every student deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.
