About Me

I am a PhD student in the Department of Pure Mathematics at the University of Waterloo. I am supervised by Matthew Kennedy and Nico Spronk. My research interests are in operator algebras and group dynamics, and my research is mostly focused on C*-algebras, topological dynamics, and their interactions.
