I am a first-year Ph.D. student at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Previously, I graduated from Rutgers University in 2026 with a B.S. in Mathematics. As an undergraduate, I participated in the 2025 Clemson University REU in Number Theory and the 2024 DIMACS REU.

Within mathematics, I am primarily interested in analysis. More specifically, I would describe my interests as being in harmonic analysis and its applications, including those to analytic number theory and partial differential equations.
