I’m an Assistant Teaching Professor in the Applied Mathematics & Statistics department at Johns Hopkins University.

Most of my energy goes into looking for ways to improve mathematics education, inside my own courses and, where I can, more broadly.

I build interactive visualizations for teaching, redesign courses from the ground up, and occasionally formalize mathematics in the Lean theorem prover.

Architects and Gardeners

George R.R. Martin split writers into architects and gardeners. The same split applies to course planning, and I am firmly a gardener.
