I am a first-year Ph.D. student at the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin), advised by Prof. Dana Moshkovitz. My current research interests lie broadly in theoretical computer science.
I received my bachelor's degree from Duke University, where I majored in Mathematics and Computer Science. I was extremely fortunate to have worked with Prof. Benjamin Rossman, Prof. Debmalya Panigrahi, and Prof. Kamesh Munagala.
