Welcome to my website! Currently I’m a PhD student a Columbia University studying gauge theory and low dimensional topology. More specifically I’m thinking about Seiberg-Witten theory and monopole Floer homology and Einstein metrics on 4-manifolds. I have the pleasure and privilege to talk regularly with Francesco Lin.

I did my undergrad in the CCS Math program at UC Santa Barbara from 2016-2020, and wrote an undergrad thesis on Hodge-Leray theory under supervision of Xianzhe Dai.

From 2018-2020 I served as president of the UCSB Math Club. We held weekly meetings discussing various topics in math, as well as doing assorted exercises in these topics.
