About me

I completed my PhD in May 2013 under the guidance of Prof. Steven Gonek at the University of Rochester. My area of research lies within the field analytic number theory. More precisely, I am interested in the analytic properties of L-Functions. This includes the distribution of values, moments, extreme values, and the distribution of zeros of these functions.
