I am a Postdoctoral Fellow in the University of Utah Mathematics Department. I am the organizer of the Utah Math Craft Circle and one of the organizers for the Applied Math Seminar. I am also a MAA Project NExT Fellow (Orange ’25).
I completed my Ph.D. in Mathematics at UCLA, where I studied physics-based simulations under the direction of my advisors Joseph Teran and Andrea Bertozzi. While at UCLA, I received the Liggett Fellow Award for outstanding performance as a teaching assistant and the Balbes Award for the top-performing female graduate student.
In addition to my academic pursuits, I enjoy playing classical piano, video games, and crocheting.
