About

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the New York Institute of Technology.

Previously, I was a Hale Visiting Assistant Professor at the Georgia Institute of Technology. My mentors were Yingjie Liu and Luca Dieci.

I received my PhD in Applied Mathematics from Columbia University under the supervision of Qiang Du.
