About
I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at Rutgers University. I am part of the Theory group at Rutgers. My research interests are in Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science, in particular algebraic geometry, computational complexity theory, coding theory, combinatorics and number theory. I completed my Ph.D. in Mathematics from Princeton University in 2019, under the supervision of János Kollár. Prior to joining Rutgers, I was a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Pure Mathematics and a member of the Algorithms & Complexity Group in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Waterloo. Before that, I was a J. F. Ritt Assistant Professor at Columbia University.
