I am a postdoctoral scholar in mathematics at Caltech. My postdoc mentors are Yi Ni and Sergei Gukov. I am interested in low-dimensional topology, in particular Khovanov homology and knot Floer homology of links in \(S^3\), sometimes in other 3-manifolds. Before that, I obtained my PhD at Stanford University. My PhD advisor is Ciprian Manolescu.
