I am a fifth-year Ph.D. candidate in the Emory University Department of Mathematics, and I am currently on the job market. I am interested in arithmetic geometry and my advisor is David-Zureick Brown. I’m currently studying rational points on curves via the method of Dem’janenko-Manin and you can see me talk about my work here, at the Café con Leche lecture series.

About Me

I am a Mexican-American first-generation student from Cudahy, California. In spring 2020, I earned my B.A. in Pure Mathematics from California State University, Fullerton.

After graduating from California State University, Fullerton, I started the Ph.D. program at Emory University and I am working in arithmetic geometry. You can find more in my CV.

I am committed to creating a more diverse and inclusive community in mathematics and creating opportunities for under-privileged, under-represented, students of color.
