I am a 1st year PhD Student in Mathematics at Purdue University. I am interested in number theory and representation theory and plan to work on automorphic forms and the Langlands program during my PhD. From fall 2021 to spring 2025, I was an undergraduate student at Johns Hopkins University.
During my undergraduate studies, I also spent some time abroad. I attended the summer 2023 session of Budapest Semesters in Mathematics, which introduced me to representation theory. In the summer of 2024, I received funding through the Aalto Science Institute International Summer Research Programme to travel to Aalto University in Espoo, Finland, where I researched the similarity classes of integer matrices under the supervision of Professor Vanni Noferini. These similarity classes are related to the ideal class group of a number field, and I learned some algebraic number theory to understand this connection.
I am passionate about teaching and have worked as a teaching assistant for calculus, linear algebra, real analysis, and abstract algebra courses. I believe that everyone has the potential to have enjoyable and fulfilling interactions with mathematics and that patient and enthusiastic instruction is essential to fostering such experiences.
Outside of academics, I enjoy spending time practicing Brazillian jiu-jitsu, playing basketball and tennis, and following the New England Patriots and the Boston Celtics.
