Welcome! Below you'll find pictures of some of the graduate students, postdocs, and other researchers that I have worked with in my research. I enjoy working in collaboration and mentoring students. If you are an undergraduate or graduate student interested in working on a project with me, please email me or stop by my office to chat. You can find some career advice (including advice on choosing an advisor) at the Mathematics Students Resource.
