Combinatorial Geometries and Geometric Combinatorics (October-November 2025)

AMS 2026 Spring Southeastern Sectional Meeting (March 28-29, 2026)

I firmly believe in the axioms of teaching mathematics created by Federico Ardila:

1. Mathematical potential is distributed equally among different groups, irrespective of geographic, demographic, and economic boundaries. 

2. Everyone can have joyful, meaningful, and empowering mathematical experiences. 

3. Mathematics is a powerful, malleable tool that can be shaped and used differently by various communities to serve their needs. 

4. Every student deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. 

I helped plan a hackathon-style event for students at the Claremont Colleges called Hack for Black Lives.
