I am an Instructor in the Department of Mathematics at Princeton University. My area of research is algebraic geometry and my postdoc mentor is János Kollár. I received my PhD from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, under the supervision of Paul Hacking. In my thesis I studied the Morrison cone conjecture for log Calabi-Yau surfaces.

During Fall 2023, I am teaching MAT 202: Linear Algebra with Applications.
