About Me

In my life I am a scholar and a mathematician, and act accordingly as often as possible. My primary focus is on mathematics, both on pursuing my personal research questions as well as helping students work towards familiarity with mathematical thought. I also spend my time reading books that make you think, primarily the major works in philosophy with a focus on phenomenology and existentialism.
