About Me

I am happy to announce that I have just graduated with a Bachelors of Science in Mathematics from the University of Texas at Austin. Hook 'em!

I am now a prospective PhD student in Computer Science at the Courant Institute at New York University!  I will be starting in Fall 2025.

Research Experience:

I am part of a group researching computational topology under Dr. Qixing Huang. We have published in the Forty-First International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML 2024).

My Honors Thesis was recently accepted by the UT Austin Department of Mathematics. See the Publications page for a PDF.

I spent the summer of 2025 at Aalto University participating in the Aalto Science Institute International Summer Research Programme under Dr. Vikas K. Garg. The primary focus of my research was in algebraic geometry and computational topology techniques applied to graph neural networks.

Math:

I am currently preparing for my PhD program at NYU. The topics of study include differential forms, finite element methods, and optimization for numerical methods.

Physics:

I took graduate topics course Physics of Quantum Information Sciences under Dr. Nick Hunter-Jones in Spring 2025. I took Quantum Physics 1 under Dr. Hunter-Jones in Fall 2024. Although I've paused my work in quantum mechanics, I am pivoting to physics simulation for graphics and 3D modeling.
