Until May 2002, I was a graduate student in the Math Department at UC Berkeley, under Bernd Sturmfels.
In the Summer 2002, I was a Liftoff
Mathematician for the Clay Mathematics Institute.
In the Fall 2002 I was a Postdoctoral Fellow at MSRI.
Then I became a Benjamin Peirce Assistant Professor at Harvard.
