I'm an assistant prof at Ohio State.
Algebraic topology provides methods for teasing out robust, global structure from local information. I am particularly interested in directed algebraic topology, an algebraic topology for local information that has a directional nature (like vector fields or semigroups), and its uses in such traditional applied subjects as optimization.

intro    article   
Elsewhere, I've taught Algebraic Topology (Penn), Multivariable Calculus (Penn and Chicago), and Single-Variable Calculus (Chicago). Here, I've taught Topics for Engineers (OSU Math 2177), Sheaf Theory (Topics Course OSU Math 8800), Abstract Algebra (OSU Math 4581), and (Regular and Honors) Linear Algebra (OSU Math 2568).

This semester, I'm teaching Linear Algebra for Engineers (OSU Math 5181.) For students, the course page can be found on Carmen.
