About me

Hi! I'm Sayantika. I'm finishing my PhD in Mathematics this summer at the Graduate Center, CUNY, under the supervision of Ara Basmajian. Starting August 2026, I will be a Peter M. Curran Visiting Assistant Professor at Fordham University. I'm interested in low-dimensional topology and geometry. This profile by the Graduate Center and this post are random things about me written by much better writers. You can learn more about my research here.
