Hello!

I’m currently 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 general combinatorial topology/ commutative algebra. 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!

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 organized the 2025 Michigan summer minicourses.
