Biography

I recently graduated from Yale University with degrees in Physics and Statistics & Data Science where I studied complex systems in various forms. My current research interests explore emergent phenomena in natural systems with a particular emphasis on biological learning and neural computation. In the past, I’ve worked on problems in theoretical neuroscience (network resilience of connectomes), origin of life (probabilistic emergence of autocatalysis), and quantitative finance (trading at IMC financial markets).
