About me

I am a fifth-year graduate student in the Department of Mathematics at University of Southern California. My advisor is Professor Ko Honda.

Research interests

I am interested in Contact and Symplectic Geometry, Heegaard Floer homology, and Contact category. My research is on convex surface theory and absolute gradings of Heegaard Floer homology.
