About

I'm interested in combinatorics. I like chromatic symmetric functions. By day, I do data science.

If you want to know about a surprising connection between functions of the form $f(f^{-1}(x) + f^{-1}(y))$ and graph coloring problems, check out my thesis "Formal group laws and hypergraph colorings" or a somewhat simplified conference paper version "Formal group laws and chromatic symmetric functions".
