I'm an assistant professor at the University of Tennessee at Martin, in my fourth semester here.

My research interests include compact Riemannian manifolds with positive/non-negative sectional curvature, and, in particular, those with a "large" isometry group. I love working with compact Lie groups, especially homogeneous spaces and biquotients.

At some point, I intend to learn some set theory.
