I am a fifth year Ph.D. candidate in math at Temple University working with Dave Futer. I am primarily interested in geometric topology and geometric group theory. I am also interested in computational topology and applied topology. I completed my B.S. in math at Concordia University Texas in December of 2018.
Outside of my research I enjoy sports analytics, soccer, and being outdoors.
Here is a copy of my CV
I share in Federico Ardila's Axioms:
Mathematical talent is distributed equally among different groups, irrespective of geographic, demographic, and economic boundaries.
Everyone can have joyful, meaningful, and empowering mathematical experiences.
Mathematics is a powerful, malleable tool that can be shaped and used differently by various communities to serve their needs.
Every student deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.
