  Explored approaches to a previously intractable problem on the topology of configuration spaces. Established a novel approach to understanding the representation theory of these spaces. Presented the results of my research upon invitation to the PIMS workshop on arithmetic topology. Utilized the Python library Sage to perform complex symbolic computations. Collaborated with colleagues from a broad range of mathematical disciplines. Delivered 6 expository talks to graduate-level seminars.
