Research Interests
My research interests lie in dynamical systems, particularly interactions between ergodic theory and analytic number theory. I am also interested in symbolic dynamics.

Before getting interested in dynamical systems, I spent time thinking about algebraic objects relevant to algebraic topology.
Here is a pre-print of work on Mackey Functors, written as part of the REU at the University of Chicago in 2017.
