⟶ MENTORING

Every student arrives with their own strengths and perspectives, and I take the work of supporting each one seriously.

Mentoring looks different for everyone. PhD students meet weekly as a lab for shared discussion and feedback. Undergraduate researchers take on project-scoped roles, paid or credit-bearing, shaped through conversation about their goals and interests.
If you’re considering joining, reach out and tell me what you hope to explore, what questions you’re carrying, and what you’d want from this lab.

Opportunities

FALL 2027
PhD admissions
I am recruiting PhD students through the CISE PhD Program. Reaching out before or after applying is not required, but strongly encouraged if you are interested in working with me.
ROLLING
Volunteer / Collaborative Roles
If something here resonates, I'd love to hear what you have in mind.
EACH SEMESTER
Undergraduate research
Independent study (course-credit) is available for undergraduate students interested in research experience. Open to students from any department. Reach out to discuss.
