I am a fourth year PhD student at Cornell University's Center for Applied Mathematics where I am fortunate to be advised by Ziv Scully. My research focuses on scheduling in queues, with a particular interest in minimizing tail metrics and the Gittins index. I received my undergraduate degree in Mathematics from Harvey Mudd College in 2022. In 2024, I was awarded the NDSEG (accepted) and NSF GRFP (declined) graduate fellowships. Previously, I was a full time software engineer at Meta (2021).
