Biography
I am an associate professor of mathematics at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities (I was an assistant professor from 2019-2024). I am broadly (mathematically) interested in analysis and PDE but have mostly worked on questions at the intersection of harmonic analysis, the calculus of variations and geometric measure theory.
Before coming to Minnesota I was a CLE Moore Instructor and NSF Postdoc at MIT, where my sponsoring scientist was David Jerison. Before that, I did my PhD at the University of Chicago, under the supervision of Carlos Kenig. I've also done long stints at MSRI (as the Huneke Postdoc in the Harmonic Analysis Program, mentored by Svitlana Mayboroda) and in Seattle (visiting Tatiana Toro during my PhD).
