About

I am an Assistant Professor with a joint appointment in the School of Mathematics and the School of Computer Science at the Georgia Institute of Technology. My research is in discrete mathematics - I'm particularly interested in structural graph theory and its connections to algorithms and complexity, matroid theory, and discrete geometry.

Previously I was an Instructor and NSF Postdoctoral Fellow at Princeton University, working with Maria Chudnovsky. Before that, I was a postdoc at the University of Warsaw working with Marcin and Michał Pilipczuk and supported by the CUTACOMBS grant. I received my PhD in Combinatorics and Optimization at the University of Waterloo, supervised by Jim Geelen.
