Zach Langley

I am currently a fifth-year PhD student at Rutgers University, where I am fortunate to be advised by Aaron Bernstein. My research interests span theoretical computer science and combinatorics, with a particular emphasis on graph algorithms.

Before coming to Rutgers in 2019, I worked as a software engineer for six years, most recently on the bioinformatics team at Color. I completed my undergraduate degree at RIT in 2013, where I was lucky to have Ivona Bezáková as a mentor.
