About Me

My research interests involve combining probability, combinatorics and topology. Recently, I have studied the topology of random cell complexes arising from percolation models. I completed my PhD at Ohio State in 2022 under the supervision of Matthew Kahle. I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at Hebrew University of Jerusalem, hosted by Gil Kalai and Yuval Peled. I am currently on the job market and my CV can be found here (updated 2/24).
