Biography
I am a fifth year PhD student doing research in logic, advanced to candidacy Fall 2018. My advisor is Philipp Hieronymi, and my primary area of interest is model theory, including applications of model theory to real analytic geometry and automata theory.
Research Interests
Model Theory
Logic
Research Description
My research in model theory so far concerns structures and theories that are "tame" in either a geometric or model-theoretic sense. I study structures whose theories are are crucially connected to o-minimal or geometric theories, with an eye toward both applications and also expanding the map of the model-theoretic universe.
