I am currently a graduate student in the Stanford University
Mathematics department working on my PhD thesis and serving as TA for
undergraduate math courses. I completed my B.S. in Mathematics with
honors at Harvey Mudd College in Claremont, CA. My research interests
include differential geometry, geometric analysis/PDEs, and their
applications to theoretical physics such as general relativity. I also
have some background in physics and computer science/programming, and
I previously worked as an actuary for a few years.
Before coming to California for college I grew up in Queens, New York. I enjoy poker and shooting pool.
