About me

I am currently a Visiting Assistant Professor at the University of Arkansas. I was previously a Visiting Assistant Professor at the University of Kansas from 2020-2023. I am on the academic job market for the 2025-2026 season.

I study prime characteristic rings and their local cohomology modules, specifically uniformity in ideal closures in prime characteristic and singularity types defined in terms of uniform ideal closures. See my research page for more information.

• • PhD in Mathematics, University of Missouri-Columbia, May 2020

  • MA in Mathematics, University of Missouri-Columbia, December 2018

  • BS in Mathematics, University of Kansas, May 2014

I help co-organize Cookies for Proof, a weekly math club for Fayetteville high school students. We study a variety of advanced mathematical and computer science topics, this semester we are looking at ray tracing and last year we looked at elliptic curve cryptography.

I also help coordinate the Arkansas Math Discovery Day, a yearly community outreach event which brings the joy of mathematics to patrons at the Fayetteville Public Library.

My hobbies include reading, playing video and board games, cooking and baking, biking, and spending time with my two cats (Cheops and George).
