Biography

I graduated from UF in 2022 with a double major in statistics and mathematics. After graduating, I dedicated a year to teaching high school mathematics including algebra 2 and AP Statistics. In 2025, I earned a Master of Science in Mathematics from UF, making me a proud double gator. I originally grew up in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and have a corgi named Jasper. I also have two cats: Biscuit and Blueberry! Outside of the math world, I like to exercise (I ran the Michelob Ultra Challenge this year!), read, and watch reality TV shows with my girlfriend.

Areas of Interest/Research

My research interests broadly lie in applied mathematics, and currently I am researching mathematical oncology and mathematical models for breast cancer. My advisor is Dr. Helen Moore.
