About me

I am a second year PhD student working under the supervision of Prof. David Loeffler and a member of the Number Theory Group at the University of Warwick. I am especially interested in topics such as special values of L-functions, Euler systems, p-adic variation of automorphic forms, and explicit class field theory.

I completed my undergraduate studies at the National University of Singapore and my masters studies at Leiden University and the University of Regensburg as part of the ALGANT program.
