About

I am an Assistant Professor of Instruction in the department of mathematics at The University of Texas at Austin. From August of 2014 to May of 2017, I was a Zorn Postdoctoral Fellow at Indiana University.

I received my Ph.D. at The University of Texas at Austin in May of 2014 under the supervision of Mirela Çiperiani.

My mathematical interests include the classical and p-adic Langlands programs, p-adic Galois representations, nonarchimedean geometry, and Iwasawa theory.

My CV

Teaching

During the summer session of 2023, I am teaching M 328K (introduction to number theory).

On p-adic representations of G_{Q_p} with open image

This note includes some results (with indications of proofs) on the existence of (p-local) p-adic Galois representations with open image.
