I am currently an Assistant Professor at the University of Washington. Previously, I was an NSF Postdoc at Princeton University, and I completed my PhD at Harvard University under Prof. Bill Minicozzi and Prof. Shing-Tung Yau.
Research Interests: Differential Geometry and Geometric Analysis; particularly minimal surfaces and mean curvature flow.
Selected papers:
- The prescribed point area estimate for minimal submanifolds in constant curvature. (with K. Naff) Preprint.
- On certain quantifications of Gromov's non-squeezing theorem. (with K. Sackel, A. Song and U. Varolgunes) To appear in Geometry and Topology>.
- Mean convex mean curvature flow with free boundary. (with N. Edelen, R. Haslhofer and M. Ivaki) Comm. Pure Appl. Math (2021). Published version.
- Existence of hypersurfaces with prescribed mean curvature I - Generic min-max. (with Xin Zhou) Camb. J. Math. 8 (2020), no. 2, 331-362. Published version.
- Min-max theory for constant mean curvature hypersurfaces. (with Xin Zhou) Invent. Math. 218 (2019), no. 2, 441-490. Published version.
- On the entropy of closed hypersurfaces and singular self-shrinkers. J. Differential Geom. 114 (2020), no. 3, 551-593. Published version.
