I am a fourth-year computer science PhD student at
Harvard University, where I am fortunate to be advised by
Ariel Procaccia and
Moon Duchin. My work is supported by a
Google PhD Fellowship and previously by an
NSF Graduate Research Fellowship. I earned my undergraduate degree in computer science and mathematics from
Amherst College, and a master's degree in computer science from the
University of Cambridge on a
Churchill Scholarship.
I am primarily interested in applying techniques from theoretical computer science to improve institutions of democracy. I work on a range of topics in social choice theory and fair division, and I am particularly focused on algorithms for fair redistricting and gerrymandering detection. I also have interests in algorithmic game theory, descriptive complexity, computational topology, and graph theory.
I also hold the current
world record for the most number of clubs successfully juggled on a unicycle
(video).
