Teaching

I'm currently designing a new course with Alberto Grunbaum and Lawrence C. Evans.
Last semester I was the Math 110 GSI.
Before that I was a GSI for Math 128A.

Research

I'm currently studying partial differential equations with Lawrence C. Evans. Recently, I've studied the infinity Laplace equation and singular solutions of certain fully nonlinear elliptic equations.

I've done some work in model theory, generalizing Hrushovski's fusion construction under the supervision of Leo Harrington.

I'm also interested in Robotics. I wrote most of the control and navigation software for an autonomous motorcyle. As an undergraduate at Carnegie Mellon I worked on the Cognitive Colonies Project.
