I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Carnegie Mellon University. My work uses tools from analysis and probability to study physical models. This semester (Spring 2026) I am the instructor for 21-420 Continuous-Time Finance.

I completed my Ph.D. at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences in 2024 under the supervision of Sylvia Serfaty. I was a visiting postdoc at the Simons Laufer Mathematical Sciences Institute (SLMath) during the Fall of 2025 for the semester program on kinetic theory.
