I am an applied mathematician broadly interested in the applications of geometric and topological techniques. I recently completed my Ph.D. advised by Isabel Darcy at the University of Iowa. I am now a postdoctoral researcher working on computational neuroscience at Iowa under the direction of James Traer.

I am an RTG Postdoctoral Fellow in Mathematics at The University of Iowa. I received my Ph.D. in Mathematics in 2022 from NC State under the mentorship of Tye Lidman. My research interests include low-dimensional topology, knot theory, Floer homological theories, and topological data analysis and visualization. I am also interested in incorporating active-learning and generative AI in my classes.

I specialize in computational knot theory, specifically tabulation of knot-like objects. My recent research focuses on understanding and classifying tangles, which contributes to the broader field of knot theory.
In addition to my academic pursuits, I have substantial industry experience in software engineering and project management. This experience has equipped me with a practical understanding of technology and its applications, which complements my theoretical research.
Beyond my mathematical research, I am passionate about education, particularly in training undergraduate researchers.
