I am an Assistant Professor at the University of South Alabama. I obtained my Ph.D. at the University of Bonn and the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn under the supervision of Catharina Stroppel in July 2017. Before moving to Alabama in August 2021, I was a Limited Term Assistant Professor at the University of Georgia and a Research Fellow at the University of Melbourne. Here is my CV.


Research Interests

  • Geometric & Combinatorial Representation Theory
  • Categorification
  • Low-Dimensional Topology & Topological Quantum Field Theory

My research is supported by an AMS-Simons PUI Grant.

*NEWS* My project Deep Learning Knot Theory has been funded by an A&S Summer Development Grant.
