About Me
I am an associate professor at Notre Dame. My work lies at the juncture of geometry/topology, geometric group theory, and complex algebraic geometry. I study the connections between mapping class groups (including braid groups), some closely-related topological spaces (surface bundles and configuration spaces), and moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces and Abelian differentials.
I am supported in part by NSF CAREER grant no. DMS-2338485.
I am co-organizing the conference Highly Connected: A celebration of Benson Farb's 60th birthday, taking place October 22-24, 2027 at the University of Chicago.
Along with Riverbend Community Math Center, I am organizing a Math Circles Institute to run at Notre Dame (July 19-24, 2027). Here is the program website.
