I am currently a Visiting Instructor in the Department of Mathematics at Lafayette College. This semester (Spring 2009) I am teaching Calculus II (Math 162) and Calculus III (Math 263). My students can find the associated course pages and information on Lafayette's Moodle site.
I recently completed my Ph.D. in Algorithms, Combinatorics and Optimization under the advisement of Tom Bohman at Carnegie Mellon University.
My research focus is on extremal and probabilistic combinatorics, especially problems in extremal graph theory and random graph theory.
