Activities

Cross-ratio degrees and perfect matchings (recording, slides)

Tropical geometry and Hilbert schemes (slides)

Introduction to M_{0,n} and M_{0,n}-bar (slides)

Short talk for undergraduates: What is a moduli space? (slides)

July 2024: I will co-lead a research group at "Combinatorics and Geometry of Moduli Spaces of Curves", at Banff International Research Station.

With Christian Boehning and Daniele Turchetti, I organized the Algebraic Geometry seminar at Warwick, Fall 2022 -- Fall 2023.

August 2023: I attended the Combinatorial Algebraic Geometry retrospective workshop at ICERM.

February 2023: Invited speaker at the 15th ALGA (Commutative Algebra and Algebraic Geometry) at IMPA in Brazil.

With Diane Maclagan, I organized a learning seminar in Spring 2023 on recent results on moduli of curves.

November 2022: Invited speaker at Newton-Okounkov Bodies and Tropical Geometry, in Frankfurt.

August 2022: Invited speaker at the LMS-Bath Workshop of Combinatorial Algebraic Geometry.

I spent Spring 2022 at the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute.

In Fall 2021, joint with Daniele Turchetti, I advised Charley Finch's 4th-year research project.

With Diane Maclagan and Rohini Ramadas, I organized a learning seminar in Fall 2021 on the moduli space of stable rational curves, M_{0,n}-bar.

With Ignacio Barros-Reyes and Noah Giansiracusa, I organized an AMS Special Session on  "Moduli of curves, Hilbert schemes, and tropical geometry" at the Spring Eastern Sectional Meeting at Tufts, March 20-21, 2021. (Postponed from 2020 due to COVID-19.)

I organized the Northeastern Summer Math Research Program in 2019 and 2020 (remotely, due to COVID-19) with Robin Walters and Emily Barnard.
