I am a Denver native born and raised.  I moved to Tucson in 2018 to begin my graduate studies in mathematics.   My research interests lie in the intersection of quantum spin systems, operator algebras, and probability.  My current focus is to understand the structural properties of ergodic matrix product states.

I was a student of Prof. Robert Sims, and I successfully defended my Ph.D. Thesis on April 11, 2024.  Since Fall 2024, I've been working as a postdoc in Prof. Jeffrey Schenker's Research Group at Michigan State University. Beginning in October 2025, I will be supported by the Zuckerman STEM Leadership program. During this program I will work jointly with Prof. Schenker and Prof. Adam Dor-On at the University of Haifa.
