Research interests

Diophantine Geometry, especially Unlikely Intersections and the Zilber-Pink Conjecture. I am broadly interested in Elliptic Curves, Height Functions and Arithmetic Dynamics. I care a lot about applications of Model Theory to Point Counting and Functional Transcendence via o-Minimality.
