In September 2025, I began a three-year postdoctoral appointment at the Beijing International Center for Mathematical Research at Peking University, where my mentor is Ruochuan Liu. I earned my PhD in Mathematics at Rice University in April, 2025, under the supervision of Brandon Levin.
My research interests lie in algebraic number theory and arithmetic geometry, specifically Galois representations and elliptic curves. In particular, I study the geometry of the moduli stack of 2-dimensional local p-adic Galois representations (the Emerton–Gee stack), as well as the Selmer groups and ranks of families of elliptic curves.
