I am a third year PhD student in Mathematics at Washington University in St. Louis with an interest in algebraic combinatorics working under Martha Precup. 

I received a masters degree from Washington University in St. Louis in 2022 and I earned a bachelors degree in Mathematics from Yachay Tech University in 2020 for which I wrote an undergraduate thesis under the guidance of Miguel Mendez. 

Together with Cesar Meza, we run The Fireside Chats at the Department of Mathematics at WashU. I regularly attend, and help organize, the WashU Combinatorics Seminar.

At WashU, I am also a McDonnell Global Scholar.
