I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Durham University in Department of Mathematics working with Jeff Giansiracusa and Yue Ren. My general area of research is combinatorial commutative algebra with applications to algebraic geometry and algebraic statistics. Here is my (2023) CV, for more up-to-date publication lists and information see Research or Google Scholar.
Upcoming. I am coorganising MEGA 2026 at Durham University (with Y. Ren, R. Tablut, and V. Schleis) and a session at ICMS Waterloo 2026 on Computational Algebra, Geometry, and Combinatorics (with D, Luber).

December 2022 - December 2024: Postdoctoral Research Associate at the University of Edinburgh working with Dimitra Kosta.
May 2022 - December 2022: JSPS short-term postdoctoral fellow (FY 2020-2021 program) working with Akihiro Higashitani at Osaka University.
I received my PhD from the Unviersity of Bristol in 2022. My PhD supervisor was Fatemeh Mohammadi and my non-academic supervisor at Bristol was Jeremy Rickard.
My research is about understanding the interconnections between algebra, combinatorics, and geometry, and their applications. Below is a list of topics featured in some of my recent research:
Rigidity and Geometrically Constrained Systems
Ehrhart Theory and Symmetric Polytopes,
Toric Degenerations of Grassmannians and Flag Varieties,
Combinatorial Mutations of Polytopes,
Conditional Independence Models and Maximum Likelihood Degree in Algebraic Statistics,
Markov Bases and Toric Ideals,
Matroid Theory and Matroid Varieties/Stratifications,
Grobner Bases and their Applications,
Khovanskii (SAGBI) Bases and Newton-Okounkov bodies,
Polyhedral and Tropical Geometry,
Computational Algebra and Geometry.
