Curriculum Vitae

I am currently an associate professor at Stony Brook University, and my area of research is algebraic geometry, more precisely Hodge theory and D-module theory and their applications to problems in birational geometry. I received my Ph.D. from Ohio State University in 2008, with Herb Clemens; after that, I was a postdoc at the  University of Illinois at Chicago and at Kavli IPMU near Tokyo. I have been at Stony Brook University since 2012. During the academic year 2013/14, I was on leave at the University of Bonn. My visit to FRIAS is funded by a Mercator Fellowship from the DFG (as part of GRK1821).
