As of the fall semester 2025, I am an assistant professor (tenure-track) at the University of Alabama.
Previously, I was a post-doc in mathematics at the University of Iowa. I completed my Ph.D. in 2022 from UCLA under Ko Honda, and prior to that, I graduated with a B.A. in mathematics in 2016 from Northwestern University.
My research interests are in contact and symplectic topology.
