Curriculum Vitae

Arithmetic statistics is the study of distributions of arithmetic objects. Most of my work is on the distribution of number fields ordered by discriminant, including Malle's conjecture, Cohen-Lenstra heuristics, torsion in class groups, and related questions.

Go to the Teaching page for information on my past (and future) courses.

A big part of being a mathematician is the dissemination of research. This is done by travelling to conferences, attending and presenting at department seminars, and giving virtual talks (which has become much more common lately).

Go to the Presentations page for a list of my recent talks, as well as links to slides, notes, or videos if they are available.
