Currently: I hold a Canada Postdoctoral Research Award in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Toronto. My office is in the Bahen Centre, room BA 6256. You can reach me at first name dot last name at utoronto dot ca.
Previously: I graduated in 2024 from the University of Waterloo where I did my PhD with Sophie Spirkl in the C&O department. My first appointment after PhD was as junior faculty in the Department of Mathematics at Princeton University, but I never made it to Princeton -- courtesy of a presidential proclamation under which apparently anyone with the wrong citizenship is a "national security and public safety threat." Instead, I stayed in Waterloo as a Postdoctoral Scholar from 2024 to 2026, waiting for this inanity to get over itself. It didn't.
Research: Combinatorics, with a focus on structural graph theory and Ramsey theory.
"If there is one thing in mathematics that fascinates me more than anything else (and probably always has), it is neither 'number' nor 'size,' but always form. And among the thousand and one faces that form chooses to manifest itself to us, the one that has fascinated me more than any other and continues to fascinate me is the hidden structure within mathematical things."
