I am a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Fribourg working with Bastian Rieck. In Summer 2025, I was a postdoctoral researcher at TU Graz, working with Michael Kerber.
I recently completed my PhD at Michigan State University, where I was advised by Liz Munch. My research lies at the intersection of topological data analysis (TDA), computational topology and geometry, and machine learning. I am particularly interested in developing new geometric and topological tools for data analysis.
In Summer 2023, I interned at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab under the mentorship of Dmitriy Morozov. In Fall 2023, I was a long-term visitor at ICERM at Brown University.
Outside of mathematics, I am a classically trained pianist and flutist, with a particular love for chamber music. When I’m not practicing, I enjoy cooking and baking for friends and family. I have a cat, Shosty (named after Dmitri Shostakovich), and a dog, Wolfie (named after Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart).
