I am an associate professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at the University of Montana. Previously I was a visiting assistant professor at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Before that I was a junior research fellow at Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics in Budapest, Hungary.

My research is concentrated mostly in extremal graph theory and combinatorics. I am especially interested in generalizations and extensions of Turán's theorem.
