PhD Student in Mathematics

University of Toronto

(Please note that some information on this landing page needs to be updated/added, which I will be working on soon). I am a PhD student in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Toronto. Previously, I completed my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Mathematics at McGill University. For my Master’s degree, I explored self-affine and self-similar fractal sets, with a focus on dimension theory as well as the spectrum of the Laplacian on such sets. During this time, I was very fortunate to be jointly supervised by professors Dmitry Jakobson and Linan Chen.
