I am a Math PhD candidate in my fourth year at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. I work on problems in mathematical biology using tools from computational math, machine learning and applied algebra. My PhD advisor is Professor Jose Rodriguez. In the fall of 2025 I participated in a graduate research community at University of Hawaii at Manoa, while supported by the IFDS research assistantship for the 2025-26 academic year. 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 while supported by the Elizabeth Hirschfelder fund. 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.
I plan on graduating May 2027!
