I'm a third-year PhD candidate in the mathematics department at UC Berkeley fortunate to be advised by Vera Serganova.
I recieved my B.S. in mathematics from USC summa cum laude. While an undergraduate, I was a student of Sarthak Parikh as a visiting researcher at Caltech.
Please do not contact me with unsolicited, non-academic job offers.
My research interests are in representation theory, possibly in the context of geometry or mathematical physics.
More specifically, I've recently started to think about quantum groups at roots of unity and supergroups (and quantum supergroups).
I no longer work on p-adic field theories, but it is still an interesting and active area of research that you can read about here!
I'm also deeply invested in international collaboration over mathematics. Ask me about it!
I am grateful for the support of the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship, the Berkeley Connect Research Fellowship, and the UC Chancellor's Fellowship.
