Fall 2023

I started my appointment as an Assistant Professor (tenure track) in the Department of Mathematics, Statistics, and Computer Science at St. Olaf College. My current research is in algebra, but I also enjoy exploring combinatorics and graph theory.

Fall 2022 - Summer 2023

I did a postdoc at the University of Primorska in Koper, Slovenia. My postdoc mentor is Russ Woodroofe.

Fall 2019 - Spring 2022

I was a Visiting Assistant Professor of Mathematics at Kalamazoo College.

Education

I obtained my PhD at the University of Michigan. My advisor is Harm Derksen and for my thesis I worked on ideals of subspace arrangements and their equivariant resolutions. I defend my thesis in May 2019.

I am the first math PhD student to also earn an embedded Master in Post-Secondary Science Education (April 2019). My education research work was supervised by Pat Herbst.

Before coming to Michigan I was at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland, UK. From this institution I received a Master in Mathematics with Honours Mathematics.

My master dissertation was supervised by Milena Hering. My undergraduate honours project was supervised by Michael Wemyss. My two vacation scholarship projects were supervised by Tom Lanagan.
