I am currently a third year PhD student at UT Austin, working with David Ben-Zvi. My interests include algebraic geometry (especially aspects/incarnations that are approachable via homotopical methods and/or reminiscent of algebraic topology) and geometric representation theory. I am also curious about topological/algebraic K-theory, and about the framework/language of (topological) quantum field theory, especially when employed to clarify situat
