About me:

I obtained my undergraduate degree (M.Math.) at Wadham College, Oxford University in 2007, and graduate degree (Ph.D.) at Cornell University in 2013. My Ph.D. supervisor is Dan Barbasch.

My area of research is on representation theory of reductive Lie groups. More precisely, I use the atlas computer program to study the unitary dual of real reductive groups, as well as their p-adic counterparts.

My publications can be found here. Notes of some of the courses I taught can be found here.
