I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Alabama. My research is in Algebraic Geometry, Commutative Algebra, and interactions with Representation Theory.
Previously, I was a postdoc at the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities and at Queen's University. I received my Ph.D. in May 2020 from the University of Notre Dame, where my advisor was Claudiu Raicu. My thesis was titled Equivariant D-Modules on Spaces of Tensors and Applications to Local Cohomology.Â
Here is my CV (last updated July 2026).
