Research 

My research broadly concerns algebraic combinatorics and representation theory, with particular emphasis on Schubert calculus and symmetric function theory.

My first few projects in graduate school focused on understanding the monomial and Schubert supports of Grothendieck polynomials. More broadly, I study special functions coming from Schubert calculus and representation theory. On the representation theory side, I study Whittaker functions and nonsymmetric Demazure atoms through the lens of lattice models and quantum groups. I also study the multigraded regularity of matrix Schubert varieties. 

I am very grateful for the award and support I received from the department and NSF grants from both of my advisors.
