About me
I am a postdoc at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics, in the group of Peter Scholze. I am broadly interested in higher structures in mathematical physics. Specifically, I work to apply homotopical mathematics and derived geometry to the formulation and construction of Classical and Quantum Field Theories. For more details, see my research statement.
History
I did my undergrad at the University of Amsterdam and UC Berkeley. I completed my PhD at the Université de Montpellier under supervision of Damien Calaque in October 2022. Here is a copy of my thesis (but most of this material is better explained at Research). Before coming to Bonn, I was a Simons postdoc with Claudia Scheimbauer at the Technical University of Munich.
