My current interests lie in algebraic combinatorics, enumerative combinatorics and representation stability. I particularly enjoy using representation theory to better understand generally unruly objects in commutative algebra via combinatorics. Recently, I have been most interested in how different types of pattern avoidance interact with other properties of permutations.


For students: If you're interested in getting a sense for what research in math looks like, please reach out. There are many problems in enumerative combinatorics that are accessible and fun! If you're at the Naval Academy, SM291 and SM239 should be more than enough background.
