I pronounce my name as anna-STAY-zhah (ænəˈsteɪʒə phonetically) although this changes if I'm not speaking English
I am a 5th year math graduate student (with plans to graduate in Spring of 2027) at University of Minnesota (UMN), advised by Vic Reiner.
Generally, I am interested in combinatorial commutative algebra and algebraic combinatorics. I enjoy working with matroids, combinatorially defined rings, representations, and questions of equivariance.
I received both BA and MA degrees from San Francisco State University. My masters thesis was advised by Dusty Ross.

Axioms
Axioms
I firmly believe in and try my best to uphold the following axioms, laid out by Federico Ardila:
Mathematical talent is distributed equally among different groups, irrespective of geographic, demographic, and economic boundaries.
Everyone can have joyful, meaningful, and empowering mathematical experiences.
Mathematics is a powerful, malleable tool that can be shaped and used differently by various communities to serve their needs.
Every student deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.
I am passionate about making mathematics a more welcoming space for students historically underrepresented in academia.
