My name is Charlie Anne Carlson (she/her). Starting in Fall 2025, I will be an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University at Buffalo. Before that, I was a postdoctoral researcher at SLMath in Berkeley, California, and a postdoc working with Eric Vigoda at the University of California, Santa Barbara. In 2023, I earned my Ph.D. from the University of Colorado Boulder. My advisor was Alexandra Kolla. I completed a Master of Science at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.
Research Interests: Spectral Graph Theory, Markov Chains, Randomized Algorithms, Combinatorial Optimization, and Statistical Physics.
