I am a theoretical condensed matter physicist studying correlated electronic materials, with a particular interest in realizing exotic emergent phenomena in real materials. I earned my PhD from Rutgers University, was a Simons Postdoctoral Fellow at MIT, and am currently an associate professor at Iowa State University. I was awarded a NSF CAREER grant to study exotic magnetic materials, and a DOE Early Career award to study praseodymium-based heavy fermion materials.
