I am a PhD candidate in mathematics at Kansas State University, where I am supervised by Dr. Rina Anno as part of the M-Center research group. I’m interested in questions in combinatorial algebraic geometry and questions about derived categories of varieties arising in geometric representation theory. Currently, I am exploring connections between Young tableau combinatorics and the geometry of Springer fibers in type A.

When not working on research, I co-organize the student M-seminar (affectionately termed μ-Seminar) where we discuss papers and invite talks from faculty on interesting topics. I’ve served as the Kansas State DRP committee chair for the past two years. On weekends I run tabletop role-playing games for a group of nerdy friends.
