Hello! Welcome to my website.
I am currently a postdoctoral research fellow in the Research Station of Geometry & Dynamics at the Mathematical Institute of Heidelberg University, where I am part of Dr. Peter Albers' research group.Â
I am also part of the organizing committee of the RTG colloquium - "Asymptotic Invariants and Limits of Groups and Spaces" (a joint Research Training Group between Heidelberg University and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) and the Geometry Seminar in Heidelberg.Â
I received my Ph.D. in 2022 from The Pennsylvania State University, working under the supervision of Dr. Sergei Tabachnikov.
I enjoy thinking about problems that show connections between geometry, and combinatorics: I am interested in billiard systems and spaces of projective polygons.
