I am a mathematics Ph.D. candidate at Colorado State University. I specialize in arithmetic geometry. My advisor is Prof. Rachel Pries. I am on the postdoc job market during the academic year 2025-2026.
I earned my M.S. in mathematics from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor (2020-2022). I earned a B.S. each in physics and mathematics (highest honors + honors undergraduate thesis) from the University of California, Santa Cruz (2016-2020). My undergraduate thesis was advised by Prof. Junecue Suh (UCSC math dept), Prof. Michael Dine (UCSC physics dept), and informally by Prof. Shamit Kachru (Stanford Physics dept).
Here is my CV.
1) Algebra and Number Theory seminar Spring 2025, University of Arizona
A new case of the Harris-Viehmann conjecture
2) Graduate student seminar Fall 2025, University of Arizona
Ekedahl-Oort, Newton and BT_m stratifications on certain unitary Shimura varieties
3) FRAG Day Fall 2025, CSU
The Ekedahl-Oort and Newton stratification of the GU(3,2) Shimura variety
4) Algebra and Number Theory seminar Fall 2023, Emory University.
Intersection of Ekedahl-Oort strata with the supersingular locus in unitary Shimura varieties of sgn(q-2,2)
