I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at North Carolina State University (NC State).

My research is focused on the interplay among geometry, combinatorics, and representation theory. Some objects that pop up often are hyperplane arrangements, matroids, cluster algebras, perverse sheaves, quiver representations, algebraic groups, nilpotent cones, and flag varieties.
