About

I am an NSF Postdoc at Berkeley where my mentor is Daniel Tataru.

I spent last year as a postdoc in László Székelyhidi's group at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences.

Before that, I got my PhD at Yale under Wilhelm Schlag.

My research interests are in PDEs, spectral theory, and their interaction with probability theory.
