Weekend of Feb. 21–22

We look forward to welcoming students and families to our Scholarship Competition on Sunday. The event will take place as scheduled. Attendees, please refer to your email for the complete itinerary and additional information.

Hartt Community Division activities will not take place this afternoon or evening (canceled from noon on).

Due to the upcoming high-impact winter storm, UHart will be closed on Monday, Feb. 23. There will be no in-person classes held on Monday. Please note that when a campus closing prevents an in-person class from meeting at its scheduled time, faculty may opt to conduct classes or provide assignments online. Students should check Blackboard and their email regularly on such days to learn of any alternate arrangements. Online and remote courses are not affected by campus closings and meet as scheduled.

Research

I study dynamical systems on fractals that have circular properties but are not actual circles. I use ideas from both topology and number theory to reach results.

Interests
  • I enjoy puzzles of all different sorts.
  • I can solve Rubik’s Cube, but not in any sort of speedy way, and even found my own algorithm.
  • I am an avid hiker, having completed all 48 New Hampshire summits over 4,000 feet in elevation, and am working my way through the 14,000-foot peaks of Colorado.
