Hello!

I’m a third year math PhD candidate at the University of Michigan. I previously earned a math B.S. from UCSB in the College of Creative Studies. My mathematical interests include the cohomology of arithmetic groups, Steinberg modules, and homological stability. My advisor is Jenny Wilson.

I’m very grateful to be supported by an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship and a Rackham Merit Fellowship (Rackham Science Award).

Beyond learning and doing math, I enjoy teaching math, playing soccer, reading, skateboarding, skiing, hiking, dj’ing, and thrifting.

Do not hesitate to reach out! Office: East Hall 4828

Teaching

• UM Math 116 (Calc II) (Winter 2025)
• UM Math 115 (Calc I) (Fall 2023, Winter 2024)

Activities

I am on the executive board of Michigan’s Association for Women in Math, serve as a mentor and organizer for Michigan’s Directed Reading Program in Mathematics, and volunteer at Super Saturdays!

Sadie Lipman and I are organizing the 2026 Michigan summer graduate minicourses. Last year we organized the 2025 Michigan summer graduate minicourses.
