I am an assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science at Memorial University, where I am a member of the Theory Group.
I'm interested in computational complexity, where I focus mainly on proof complexity, circuit complexity, TFNP, and related areas. I also enjoy thinking about robust algorithms, such as those with low sensitivity, and property testing.
Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher at UCSD and a research fellow at the Simons Institute at UC Berkeley. I received my PhD from the University of Toronto where I had the great fortune of being supervised by Toni Pitassi. For more of my academic past life, you can see my curriculum vitae.
