Hi! I am a final year PhD student in MIT's department of Mathematics. I am very fortunate to be advised by Virginia Vassilevska Williams.
I am broadly interested in problems in graph algorithms and fine grained complexity.
Before coming to MIT I received my bachelor's degree in mathematics and computer science from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel.
I am grateful to be supported by an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship.
