My work is supported by NSF grants DMS 1358648 (1200898, 2012-2016), DMS 1600782 (2016-2019), DMS 1752345 (CAREER, 2018-2024), and a Simons Foundation fellowship (2023-2024).

Before coming to OSU I was trained at UPenn ('10-'12) as a postdoc. I also spent some time at Yale (as a research associate, '12-'13) and at IAS (as a von Neumann fellow, '15-'16).

I finished my Ph.D. at Rutgers in 2010 under the guidance by prof. Van Vu; cv.
