Curriculum Vitae
I am on the postdoc market this academic year.
Research Interests
I study complex algebraic geometry and Hodge theory. My advisor is Ben Bakker.
I mainly work on Lagrangian fibrations, non-Abelian Hodge theory, and moduli spaces of Abelian varieties.
I'm also interested in K-trivial varieties, symplectic geometry, and algebraic foliations, as well as representations of groups
arising from algebraic geometry, such as the fundamental groups and Mumford—Tate groups of algebraic varieties.

Brief notes I wrote up for my own comprehension while reading Simpson's 1992 paper.
