In September 2020, I started as a PhD candidate at the Korteweg-de Vries Instituut at the University of Amsterdam. My supervisor is dr. Lenny Taelman. My research concerns derived categories and deformation theory. I am particularly interested in deformations of Fourier Mukai transforms between Calabi-Yau varieties.
My CV can be found here.
