I was selected this year to be a Nifty Fifty speaker. By posting this emblem I am an official sponsor as well!

Research Interests

My research is in symplectic geometry, group actions and related combinatorics. Among my interests are: Schubert polynomials and the intersection properties of Schubert varieties, toric varieties, equivariant cohomology, moment maps and symplectic and hyperkähler reduction, and orbifold cohomology. I have also become involved in the media's use of statistics and mathematics. Feel free to read my papers.

STATS

I am currently Director of Research at Statistical Assessment Service, or STATS, a non-profit organization affiliated with George Mason. Our mission is to improve the public debate on how science, quantitative, and mathematical issues are covered in the media. This is in addition to my position in the Department of Mathematical Sciences.

Teaching

Spring ('12) I am teaching Math 112 (Discrete Math) and Math 722 (Algebraic Topology). I have previously taught an assortment of graduate and undergraduate courses, as well as advised individual and summer projects.

If you're interested in working with me independently, you can ask my students what they think.

Family

I have four adorable kids, and a husband that makes it all possible. My other half is also a professor at George Mason (with his own, very outdated, website).
