Stojanoska is originally from Macedonia.[2] As a high school student, she competed for the Republic of Macedonia in the 2000 and 2002 International Mathematical Olympiads, receiving a bronze medal in 2002.[3] After undergraduate studies at the American University in Bulgaria,[4] She completed her Ph.D. in mathematics at Northwestern University in 2011. Her dissertation, Duality for Topological Modular Forms, was supervised by Paul Goerss.[5]
She became a postdoctoral researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, working with Haynes Miller,[6] in California, as a Viterbi Endowed Postdoctoral Scholar at the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute,[4] and in Germany,[2] at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn.[7] She joined the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign as an assistant professor in 2015.[2]
