My CV (updated October 2024)

About me:

I am a postdoctoral assistant professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Michigan. I got my PhD in 2022 from the University of Washington under the direction of Professor Isabella Novik .

I use she/her/hers pronouns.

My research interests lie primarily in algebraic and geometric combinatorics. I am particularly interested in studying the combinatoric of polytopes and simplicial complexes.

I enjoy teaching all levels and areas of mathematics. I have taught a wide variety of courses, from foundational classes like calculus and linear algebra to advanced courses in combinatorics.

Outside of math, I enjoy coffee, hiking, rock climbing, and also sailing!
