I am a fifth year graduate student in the Mathematics Department at the University of Illinois. I am working with Burak Erdogan on properties of solutions to the Schrodinger Equation in higher dimensions. I am also working with Burak Erdogan and Dirk Hundertmark on a problem involving soliton-like solutions to the NLS that arise in fiber optics.
I have a B.A. from Albion College, where I graduated in 2005 with a Mathematics and Physics double major and a chemistry minor.
I grew up in Downers Grove, IL, attending Downers Grove South High School.
