I am a second-year graduate student in the mathematics department at Virginia Tech. My research interests lie in the area of coding theory, and my advisors are Dr. Gretchen Matthews and Dr. Hiram López. I am currently an instructor of record for MATH 1225 (Calculus of a Single Variable).

I received my B.S. in mathematics from Georgia College & State University, Georgia's public liberal arts university, in December of 2023. I was selected as the recipient of the 2024 College of Arts & Sciences Medallion for the Division of Science & Mathematics.

Prior to beginning graduate school, I participated in the Enhancing Diversity in Graduate Education (EDGE) Summer Program. The program and the people I've met through it have had a lasting impact on my life and career as a mathematician, and I cannot recommend the program enough.
