About Me

I am currently a Dunham Jackson Assistant Professor at the School of Mathematics of University of Minnesota--Twin Cities.  Specifically, I work in the number theory/automorphic forms group.  I received my MS and PhD from the Yale University Mathematics Department.  Subsequently I was for two years a postdoctoral researcher at Ben Gurion University of the Negev.  I was born in Virginia, USA.

My general interests are in applications of harmonic analysis to geometry & number theory.  Specifically, I am interested in the analysis of the spectrum of the Laplacian (or similar operators) on arithmetic quotients of adele groups (theory of automorphic forms), on locally symmetric spaces (theory of spectral zeta functions), and on certain spaces arising in discrete mathematics (spectral theory of graphs).  More details can be found in the Research section.
