About
Hi! I'm currently a Masters student at Johns Hopkins University studying robotics. Previously, I studied math and physics at UC Berkeley, where I was advised by Sug Woo Shin. I'm interested in algebraic number theory and its connections with algebraic geometry and representation theory. Specifically, I am interested in the geometry and cohomology of (local and global) Shimura varieties, and more generally moduli spaces of (local and global) shtukas. I am also interested in various topics in the intersection of robotics, machine learning, and computer vision, specifically in intelligent robot motion.
