I am a sixth year graduate student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in the Department of Mathematics . I did my undergraduate work at Boston College.

Research

I am interested in combinatorics, and my current research focuses on extremal and structural graph theory.

Here are two pages with large collections of open problems in combinatorics.

• Open problems in combinatorics and graph theory, compiled by Doug West
• Open problems in topological graph theory, compiled by Dan Archdeacon.
