Biographical Information
- PhD Candidate in Mathematics
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2006-present.
- MS in Mathematics
Texas Tech University, 2006.

Research Interests
I am primarily interested in Analytic number theory, q-series and Special functions. I like to work in the areas of Mathematics
developed by Srinivasa Ramanujan. This is my fourth year of PhD. My
thesis advisor is Prof. Bruce C. Berndt.
