I am a postdoc at UiT The Arctic University of Norway, associated with the Lie-Størmer Center.
Previously I was at the University of Michigan, under the supervision of David Speyer. Before that I was a postdoc at the Max Planck Institute for mathematics in Leipzig, working in the math software group lead by Michael Joswig.
I received my Ph.D. from Brown University under the supervision of Melody Chan. My research interests include tropical geometry, combinatorial and computational algebraic geometry, and broadly combinatorics. I did my undergraduate studies at Smith College.
I use she/her/hers pronouns.
Here is my CV.
