I am a PhD student in mathematics at Simon Fraser University studying under Dr. Bojan Mohar and Dr. Ladislav Stacho. My Erdős number is 3 [3, 2 , 1].
I specialise in graph theory and combinatorics. I find problems related to how behaviour from simple graphs generalise to digraphs and hypergraphs fascinating. In addition to this, I am interested in a variety of pure math problems, and problems originating in applied settings.
You can find my CV, GitHub, and Google Scholar here.
