About Me
I am second year Ph.D. student in Applied Mathematics at MIT. My advisor is Erik Demaine, who is in the Theory of Computation group of the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL). My research interests are mainly geometric, specifically the area of folding & unfolding.
