I'm a postdoc in the math department at the University of Utah, studying algebraic geometry and commutative algebra. Recently, I've been thinking about positivity properties of tangent bundles of Fano manifolds in relation to differential properties of their section rings, and connections to positive characteristic phenomena such as finite F-representation type. I'm also interested in applications of arc spaces to the study of singularities.

I am also currently co-organizing Utah's Algebraic Geometry Seminar with Emelie Arvidsson.

You can find my CV here.

Before this, I was a graduate student at the University of Michigan. My adviser was Mircea Mustaţă
