Education

Ph.D. 2002, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Thesis advisors: Donald Burkholder and Marius Junge.
M.S. 1997, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
Diploma in Mathematics 1993, University of Bucharest.

My main mathematical interests are in the fields of noncommutative probability, von Neumann algebras and operator spaces, with a focus on noncommutative Lp-spaces and inequalities for noncommutative martingales. I am also very interested and have carried out research in classical potential theory.
