Hi my name is Jonas! I am currently a second-year math Ph.D. student at the University of Washington. Prior to that, I got my Master's Degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign where I was advised by Olgica Milenkovic and worked on problems related to DNA based storage, group testing for COVID, and quantum information theory. I got my Bachelor's Degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Rutgers University where I worked on projects and research in machine learning and mathematical modeling.
My current research interests lie in Probability Theory, Graph Theory, Data Science, Machine Learning, and Information Theory.
