Hello there~!
I'm a PhD candidate at UC Berkeley, currently in the Department of Mathematics and Program in Critical Theory. In brief, I work in feminist technoscience, particularly in the intersection of descriptive set theory and metric geometry; in critical pedagogy; and in constructing what I call responsible epistemology (for mathematics and other theoretical sciences under our contemporary technoscientific paradigm). My mathematics research advisor is Andrew Marks and my critical theory research advisor is Jim Porter.
I'm an NSF Graduate Research Fellow and UC Berkeley Chancellor's Fellow, and I served as the mathematics department's Equity & Inclusion Coordinator through Spring 2025. I am also faculty in the Mathematics Department at Mt. Tamalpais College.
Here is my CV.
Recent & Current Work
Mathematics Research: I'm currently working in large-scale geometry, particularly in asymptotic dimension theory and its relation to Borel equivalence relations.
Other recent endeavors include a venture into symbolic dynamics, mentored by Cesar Silva, and answering a long-standing problem in discrete geometry, with Peter Hollander, Cameron Edgar, and Colin Adams. Other recent projects include classifying families of non-uniform star polyhedra and constructing a new pedagogical approach to singular cohomology.
Links to my publications can be found under Mathematics.
Critical Theory Research: My current undertaking is in the realm of feminist technoscience, in particular the wielding of agency to produce countercultural spaces in the interstices of techno-(hyper)capitalism. My most recent submission is an essay on decolonizing pedagogy and epistemology, unavailable online while under review, though other of my work can be viewed at the Critical Theory tab.
Teaching & Mentoring: I am faculty at Mt. Tamalpais College. Summer 2026 I taught MTH 99, our elementary algebra course, and Fall 2026 I'm teaching MTH 170, an early college elective course I designed with Charlotte Keisling on set theory and a critical history of mathematics.
I also served for many semesters as a mentor through the MPS Scholars Program and have advised several independent study projects through the directed reading program. In Summer 2025, I served as a graduate mentor for the Polymath Jr. REU, working with Drs. Lauren Rose and Timothy Goldberg on their project in finite geometry.
Seminars & Workshops: During the Spring 2024 and Fall 2024 semesters, I co-organized the Critical Inquiries in Mathematics seminar at Berkeley. Seminar information for Spring 2024 can be found at this link; for Fall 2024, see this link. I also co-organized at Berkeley––with Catherine Cannizzo, Abbe Herzig, Emily Moore, and Aris Winger––a series of workshops on mathematics pedagogy and mentorship; you can find more information about the workshops here.
Office Hours: Fridays 3–6pm (use this link to book a meeting), or email me to set something up if that doesn't work.
Shenanigans outside of academics(!)––
Yes, I *am* that girl running up and down the hills of Tilden with a dog attached to me talking too loudly about negative dialectics. You'll most likely find me doing that, or bouldering, or engaging in some other dirt-coated tomfoolery...or if not that, then perhaps working at the apple stand at the farmer's market (come say hi!), or maybe cashing out at the Berkeley "free" piles.
(And yet! Here is a rare occurrence of me doing none of the above...)
