SCIENCE FAIR

As a highschool student I was heavily involved in the science fair: competing at the state, national and international levels.   The national competition, Junior Science and Humanities Symposium (JSHS) gave me early experience giving conference-style research talks, and I am very happy to be able to give back as an adult.

I have worked for the national JSHS the past four years in the capacity of a judge, speaker and poster presenter; and have also led student discussion groups on graduate school and mathematics.

MATHEMATICAL STORIES

When speaking to audiences at the highschool, undergraduate, or beginning graduate level in a non-technical capacity, I enjoy conveying some of the intuition and motivation for parts of mathematics through stories.  Here are some of the things I like to talk about, written up in a conversational way.

Life in Hyperbolic Space

Life in hyperbolic 3 space is weird: for example you cant make a book or a scroll, you need to always carry a powerful flashlight with you, and if you shut your eyes its difficult to tell if you are sitting calmly on a train or laying down on a merry-go-round.  Here we'll go over the details that back up these wild claims.
