I completed my MMath (2015) and PhD (2020) in Pure Mathematics at the University of Waterloo under the supervision of Laurent Marcoux.

My online video lessons for MATH 119 and MATH 207 are publicly available on my YouTube channel, Mathemation.

I am interested in linear algebra, matrix analysis, operator theory, and operator algebras.

I am an academic advisor for the Faculty of Mathematics. If you are a Waterloo math student, the following links may be helpful to you.
