Research
I am a Research Assistant Professor and NSF Postdoctoral Fellow at UIC. I completed my PhD under Joe Harris at Harvard. My research focuses on algebraic geometry. In particular, I focus on Hilbert schemes of points, vector bundles, and various interpolation-type problems that arise in algebraic geometry.
Here are some of my papers and other projects.
"Interpolation, Bridgeland stability, and monomial schemes in the plane." Joint with Izzet Coskun. Preprint. pdf
"Effective divisors on the Hilbert scheme of points in the plane and interpolation for stable bundles." Preprint. pdf
"The minimal model program for the Hilbert scheme of points on P2 and Bridgeland stability." Joint with Daniele Arcara, Aaron Bertram, and Izzet Coskun. (Advances in Mathematics). pdf
"Restrictions of Steiner bundles and divisors on the Hilbert scheme of points in the plane." Article version of my thesis. (International Math Research Notices) pdf
"Interpolation on surfaces in P3." (Transactions of the American Mathematical Society) pdf
