She got her PhD in Mathematics at Indiana University under the supervision of Prof. Paul Kirk. After grad school she was a postdoctoral fellow at UGA, NC State University, and at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn. She has been at the University of Notre Dame since 2020. She studies 3- and 4-manifolds, and also knots and the surfaces they bound in the 4-ball. Her preferred tools come from gauge theory and Floer homologies.

Donate
The section would like to once again support an Indiana Section NExT fellow, who will be required to teach at an Indiana institution. ( In 2018, the section supported such a fellow; thank you for your support then!) . The executive board has pledged $1500 toward the support of an Indiana Section Fellow, if the section can raise the remaining funds needed. Combined with donations of $346 currently earmarked for a Section NExT fellow, we have $1846 available to support a fellow.
While the total cost of supporting a fellow has increased to $3000 an anonymous donor has stepped forward and will match every contribution from section members and Fall meeting participants through the end of the Fall meeting, up to a maximum of $300.
If we can meet this donor’s challenge, the section only needs to raise $854 to meet our goal to support an Indiana Fellow.
Please consider making a contribution (of any size) to help us reach this goal by the end of the Fall Section meeting on October 7. Thank you for any support you can provide!
