About Me

I am a Ph.D. candidate in mathematics at the University of Minnesota, mentored by Arnd Scheel. I graduated from the University of California, Los Angeles with a B.S. in Mathematics.

My research interests lie in the intersection of partial differential equations and dynamical systems. My current research focuses on pattern formation in reaction-diffusion systems with applications to biology.
