My research interests are in topology and geometry. I am particularly interested in the geometric interpretation of persistent homology.

I did my undergraduate and graduate studies at the University of Ljubljana and the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, the latter under the supervision of Jerzy Dydak.

I was a postdoctoral researcher at IST Austria under the supervision of Herbert Edelsbrunner.

Research Papers and preprints 44 research papers and 10 preprints in persistent homology, applied topology, coarse geometry and wild topology. Textbook Introduction to Persistent Homology A freely available textbook for students of mathematics and computer science.
