I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the Ohio State University. I'm primarily interested in tropical geometry, arithmetic geometry, and combinatorial algebraic geometry. Before coming to the Ohio State University I was an Associate Professor in the Departments of Combinatorics and Optimization and Pure Mathematics at the University of Waterloo. Prior to that, I was as an RTG Postdoc at The University of Texas, a Postdoctoral member at Mathematical Sciences Research Institute, and an Assistant Research Professor at Duke University. I was a graduate student at Stanford University and an undergraduate at the Ohio State University. Needless to say, Go Bucks!
