I am a seventh year Ph.D. candidate at the University of Colorado Boulder. My advisor is Dr. Markus Pflaum, and I use algebraic topology and category theory to study the spectrum structure of the relative K-theory of Banach algebras.Â
My other mathematical interests are in computational topology, topological data analysis, Sona sand drawings, and tiling. Other academic interests of mine include physics and computer science.
My pronouns are she/her.
In my free time I enjoy adventure sports and being outside! I am active in my local highlining, juggling, and circus communities. I also enjoy crafting and taking care of my dogs.
