About me

I’m an associate professor at the Department of Mathematics at TCU. I joined TCU in 2015, after a postdoc at Penn State. I received my Ph.D. from Purdue University in 2013.

Research interests

I study operator algebras. I am interested in the structure and classification theory of amenable \(C^*\)-algebras, and the interaction of operator algebras with groups and dynamical systems.
