I'm a mathematician, and I enjoy exploring geometric, algebraic, and categorical structures inspired by quantum physics.

*** I'm in the academic job market right now (for positions begining in Fall 2026)! ***

Since July 2023, I'm a Benjamin Peirce Fellow at Harvard University and a Simons Collaboration Postdoctoral Fellow at Harvard CMSA, mentored by Prof. Dan Freed and supported in part by Simons Collaboration on Global Categorical Symmetries. Previously, I was a postdoc at UT Austin from August 2022 to May 2023. I got my PhD in Mathematics in June 2022 at Caltech, where I studied quantum topology and physical mathematics under the supervision of Prof. Sergei Gukov. For more, see my Curriculum Vitae.
