Biography
I am the data manager for the Math Active Learning Lab in O'Kelly 33.
Online sections of Math 165 (fall semester), 166 (spring semester), 265 (fall semester), and 266 (spring semester). If you have difficulty registering because of prerequisite courses, find your previous course or contact me.
My specialty is probability, especially random walks in random environments and evolving shapes. I received my degree from UCLA, under the advising of Marek Biskup. I am currently investigating stochastic processes and also dabbling in machine learning.
