Hi! I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at MIT. My office is 2-275 in the Simons Building.
Before coming to MIT, I was a Szegő Assistant Professor in the Mathematics Department of Stanford University. I got my Ph.D. from the Institut für Mathematik at the Universität Zürich, under the supervision of Valentin Féray and Mathilde Bouvel.
I am mainly interested in probability theory and its connections to combinatorics and mathematical physics. I study various random combinatorial structures and their continuous limits, including random permutons, meanders, multi-dimensional constrained Brownian motions, Schramm-Loewner evolutions, and Liouville quantum gravity.
NEWS: I recently received the Alumni Special Award from the Associazione Alumni of the Università degli Studi di Padova. The prize is awarded to a young alumnus or alumna for their contribution and impact in embodying the values of Patavina Libertas.
NEWS: I am organizing the Directed Reading Program (DRP) in mathematics during the Independent Activities Period (IAP) period.
