I am a postdoc in the discrete math group at University of Amsterdam under the supervision of Ross Kang and funded by the NETWORKS consortium.

I am interested in structural graph theory and its algorithmic applications. Lately I’ve been particularly excited about forbidding induced subgraphs and distributed graph algorithms. Broadly, I am interested in discrete math and its applications.

I obtained my PhD from the Program for Applied and Computational Math at Princeton University in May 2021. Paul Seymour was my advisor. My Phd thesis is On recognition algorithms and structure of graphs with restricted induced cycles. From August 2021- July 2024, I was a postdoc in the Discrete Mathematics Group at the Institute of Basic Sciences in Daejeon, South Korea which is lead by Sang-il Oum. Sang-il kindly keeps letting me host my webpage at this address 😀

(Old) News:
  • I moved to the Netherlands in August!
  • In September 2025, I will begin an assistant professor position at University of Utrecht’s math department.

I’m interviewed in this Korean Ministry of Science video intended to encourage Korean high schoolers to pursue a career in STEM 🙂
