I am a mathematician and an Associate Editor at Mathematical Reviews.
I am interested in number theory, broadly speaking, especially when there is interesting algebraic or geometric structure involved. I currently work primarily in arithmetic invariant theory, arithmetic statistics, and arithmetic dynamics. I have an ongoing interest in exploring connections with topology and knot theory, specifically related to the Alexander module and Blanchfield pairing.
I completed my PhD at Princeton in 2014 under Manjul Bhargava. From 2014-2019 I was an NSF and Benjamin Peirce postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University.
