I am interested in understand hyperbolic structures in various branches of mathematics and
science, and attempting to leverage relationships between them. My research has historically
been in the areas of complex analysis, differential geometry, and algebraic geometry. More
recently, I am exploring how hyperbolic complex geometry naturally emerges in calibrated geometries,
machine learning, statistics, and random matrix theory.
