Introduction
Hi! I am a mathematician working in operator algebras and quantum information theory. I will start a new position as Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Wilfrid Laurier University, Waterloo, in January 2027.
Previously, I was employed as a postdoctoral researcher at the Centre for the Mathematics of Quantum Theory (QMath) within the Department of Mathematical Sciences at the University of Copenhagen. Before this, I was an MSCA Postdoctoral Fellow and postdoctoral researcher in the same department from 2022-2025, and an Assistant Adjunct Professor in the UCLA Mathematics Department from 2019–2022.
I obtained my PhD in 2019 at the University of California at San Diego under the supervision of Professor Adrian Ioana, my master's degree at KU Leuven, Belgium, and my bachelor's degree at Hasselt University, Belgium. A more extensive CV can be found here.
