Academics

I am an undergraduate student at University of Virginia, majoring in pure mathematics and computer science. 

I am fortunate to work with Professor Thomas Koberda on studies and research in Mathematics, Professor Wei-Kai Lin on studies and research in Theoretical Computer Science, and Professor Rich Nguyen on projects in Machine Learning.

Projects Perspective: I'm on my way to pursuing two Distinguished Major Program Degrees at UVA (Advanced Bachelor Degree at the Univerisity of Virginia) in Theoretical Mathematics and Computer Science. For Math, I will focus on Geometric Group Theory, and for CS, I will focus on Theoretical Computer Science, Cryptography, and Algorithms.

Research Interest (Currently as an undergraduate student)

Geometric Group Theory, Theoretical and Applied Cryptography. With special interests on Word Problem for Groups, Automata Theory, Algebraic-flavored Cryptography, and ORAM-related questions.

Academic Notes

Starting in the winter of 2023, at the end of the first semester of my sophomore year, I decided to create my own academic notes page, open source.

Mathematical Achievement Peer Support @UVA

Check out this exciting new organization founded by Professor Thomas Koberda! 

The outstanding math major students here will be answering questions about everything math related to our fellow mathematics students, it's a very good organization and I'm one of the mentors.

UVA-Vietnam Polymath REU Joint Seminar

Co-organized by Professor Koberda, I gave a talk on group presentation,  word problem for group, and automatic group. Link to the recording of my talk is available, and here is my write-up for this talk.
