About

I am a mathematician working in guidance, navigation and control analysis.

Between 2017 and 2022 I was a postdoctoral scholar and then a lecturer in the algebra group at the University of Kentucky, where I worked with Uwe Nagel on problems in computational and commutative algebra.

Before coming to the University of Kentucky, I did my graduate work at the University of Illinois where I worked with Hal Schenck and finished my PhD in 2017. I earned my BA in Computer Science and Mathematics at Wesleyan University in 2010.

I am interested in problems at the intersection of mathematics, statistics and computation. I also like using math to improve computational software. I have experience with Macaulay2, Mathematica, and GAP, as well as Python with SageMath, NumPy, SciPy and OCaml.
