Hello! I am a VAP at Georgia Tech under the supervision of Alex Dunn. I was PhD student at UIUC in Number Theory. My advisor is Scott Ahlgren. I was also a Sloan Scholar and a NSF graduate research fellow. Modular forms, Maass forms, and L-functions are all of great interest to me. I enjoy using a blend of theoretical tools and computations in my research.
