About Me

I am currently a fourth-year Ph.D. student at the University of Utah. My advisor is Harold Blum.

Research Interests

Algebraic geometry. In particular, Birational geometry, K-stability, and the moduli of Fano varieties. I have also been interested in derived categories, computations in Macualay2, and some problems involving Bertini theorems over finite fields.

Teaching

I am currently not teaching. In the past I've tought Math 1030 (Introduction to Quantitative Reasoning), Math 1320 (Engineering Calculus II) and have ran labs for Math 1310 and Math 1180a.

Other

Some past work (joint with collaborators) has been done on a Macaulay2 package for computing blowups and resolutions of singularities. Here is a link to the repository on Github.
