About

I am a fifth year Ph.D. student in the mathematics department. My advisor is Michael Movshev. I am currently a NSERC doctoral fellow and am partially supported by Stony Brook. During the 2007-08 academic year I was a Renaissance Fellow. I completed my B.Sc. in mathematical physics from Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario, in April, 2007. I am from Waterloo, Ontario home to the University of Waterloo, the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics and the Institute for Quantum Computing.

When not doing math, I enjoy playing fastball; my old team is the Breslau Black Sox Fastball Club. I am also an avid music fan and enjoy playing guitar when I have the time.
