        <p>I am a condensed matter theorist interested in strongly correlated systems. My research examines how electron interactions, multiple orbitals, and spin-orbit coupling give rise to unconventional magnetic and quantum phases.</p>
        <p>Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher at <a href="https://www.ornl.gov/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Oak Ridge National Laboratory</a>. I received my Ph.D. from the <a href="https://www.utk.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Tennessee</a> in 2020 under the supervision of <a href="http://sces.phys.utk.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Prof. Elbio Dagotto</a>.</p>
