I'm an algebraic topologist with a geometric bent. I've studied cobordism theory, equivariant topology, knot theory, configuration spaces, operads, Goodwillie calculus, rational homotopy theory, and cohomology of groups. I'm also interested in mathematics education at all levels (K-graduate), especially in discovery methods as used in the Ross/PROMYS programs.
