About

I'm a first year PhD student at the Hodge Insitute, University of Edinburgh supervised by Darrick Lee and Sjoerd Beentjes. I am part of the EPSRC funded Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Algebra, Geometry and Quantum Fields (AGQ).


Previously, I was at ETH Zürich where I obtained my BSc and MSc in Mathematics.


My MSc thesis entitled Optimizing Functions Based on Signed Barcodes was supervised by Sara Kališnik and Steve Oudot, whom I visited as an intern at INRIA Saclay during Fall 2022.
My bachelor's thesis entitled Examining Persistent Homology from Three Different Theoretical Perspectives was supervised by Sara Kališnik.

Research Interests

I'm drawn to areas of mathematics that lie at the intersection of pure and applied mathematics. In particular, I’ve spent a lot of time working in topological data analysis (TDA), which aims to leverage tools from algebraic topology to analyze data.
