About Amanda </h3>
<p>
I am a sixth year graduate student in mathematics at the <a href="http://www.unl.edu/">
University of Nebraska-Lincoln</a>. My field of study is commutative algebra,
and I am working under the direction of Srikanth Iyengar. In particular, I am interested
in homological algebra, maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules, and Gorenstein rings.</p>
<p>
My non-math hobbies include biking, traveling, reading, and playing with my cats.
