About Me

I am a graduate student at Washington State University (WSU), working toward a Master Degree in Analysis. My time at WSU is spent on guided studies through geometric analysis, broadly defined (see Kevin Vixie's page for furher information), programming applications of geometric measure theory (GMT) for use on high dimensional and large data sets, and intermingling with the mathematical community through workshops and seminars. Current info on what I'm doing now can be found below.

I was first introduced to the Geometric Analysis team as an undergrad at WSU where Dr. Kevin Vixie teaches. Since then my interests and excitement for Analysis has grown exponentially.
