I am a third Math PhD student at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. I am working with my advisor Professor Jose Rodriguez on problems in Applied Algebraic Geometry. I spent the Fall of 2024 at ICERM at Brown University. In the Fall of 2023 I was a visiting graduate researcher at IPAM at UCLA. Before my PhD, I completed my Bachelors in Electrical Engineering at Boston University and worked as an Engineer for four years in between my Bachelors and PhD while taking Math courses.
