I am a sixth year Ph.D. student in the Department of Mathematics, Duke University. I am interested in combinatorial commutative algebra and algebraic geometry. My advisor is Ezra Miller. I think about problems on minimal free resolutions, matroids, Schubert calculus and Lorentzian polynomials. I will be a visiting assistant professor at MSU in Fall 2025 mentored by Avery St. Dizier.
