About me

I'm a third year grad student at Northwestern, and my research is mainly advised by Mike Hill. Algebraic topology, or more precisely chromatic equivariant homotopy theory, is what I like to study. In my free time I like to cook, play indie video games, and build Legos. I'm the current president of the Northwestern chapter of Spectra, an organization for LBGTQ+ mathematicians, and I'm currently co-organizing an informal seminar on synthetic spectra.

Research Interests

I'm really interested in how the chromatic story plays out equivariantly. For example, what are the "right" equivariant/global versions of MU, BP, Morava K-theories, and Lubin-Tate theories, and what can they tell us about the structure of equivariant/global homotopy categories? Additionally, I'm interested in computing Balmer spectra and determining Nullstellensatzian objects (in the sense of Burklund-Schlank-Yuan). 

Lately I've been thinking a lot about equivariant algebra. Upcoming work with Ben Spitz and Jason Schuchardt classifies the Nullstellensatzian Tambara functors, and I've been wondering about how this might be used to port over definitions and results from basic Galois theory to the Tambara functor setting.
