I graduated UCSD Math PhD program in 2019, conducting research in the fields of analysis, partial differential equations, geometric measure theory, calculus of variations, potential theory, and Fourier analysis, with application to electrostatics, statistical mechanics and biomathematics.

After defending I continued to work at UCSD as a visiting lecturer.

I left San Diego in the summer of 2022 to start a new job as professor of statistics at Boise State University. As of Spring 2023 I am teaching Math 360: Engineering Statistics at BSU.

My interests include playing jazz guitar, reggae, funk, blues, and world music, racquetball, the great outdoors, cooking, music, art, comedy, improv, and everything science.
