I've been interested in mathematics since I was a small child, and throughout middle and high school my interest expanded, largely through Art of Problem Solving, Canada/USA Mathcamp, and a variety of competitions. I graduated from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 2018 with a 3.95 GPA, and I have been working towards a doctorate at the University of Wisconsin, which I defended on June 2, 2025.
In the summer of 2023 I worked as an instructor for the university's mathematics department Summer Enhancement Program for Algebra, mainly assisting new graduate students in preparing for qualifying exams by helping them work through problems from previous years' exams.Â
In the summer of 2024 I worked as a mathematics-based cryptography intern for EndoSec, LLC, where I learned about the VHDL programming language.
In my free time, I work as a mathematics tutor for Tutor.com and Learner Education. I enjoy doing and making various types of logic puzzles, ballroom and Irish dancing*, rock climbing, and improv comedy. I wish I could post pictures of my pets, but I have yet to have any pets of my own. Sorry.
