About
I'm a research scientist working with
the Simons Collaboration on Arithmetic Geometry, Number Theory, and Computation
at Harvard.
The main person I work under is
Noam Elkies
. I did my PhD with
Dorian Goldfeld
.
I'm interested in analytic number theory, arithmetic statistics, computational number theory, and elliptic curves.
Here is my
CV
.
