About me

I've been working in the mathematics department at the University of Primorska since the fall of 2017, and I became a full professor here towards the end of 2023. Before that, I spent 5 years on the tenure-track at Mississippi State University, following 4 years as a postdoc at Washington University in St. Louis. My first job after my PhD was in the pre-medical department at Weill Cornell Medical College in Qatar.

My research is on geometric and topological combinatorics, including connections to group theory and commutative algebra. I also develop the Gap.app macOS frontend and distribution for the GAP computer algebra system.
