I am an assistant professor of mathematics at the University of Wisconsin – Whitewater. My primary area of research is graph theory, with a particular interest in structural problems concerning the immersion relation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I graduated with a Ph.D. in Mathematics from Auburn University in August 2023. My research advisor was Dr. Jessica McDonald, and my dissertation is titled “Containment Relations and Line Graphs.” Prior to this, I completed an M.S. in Computational Mathematics at Duquesne University in May 2016 under the supervision of Dr. Karl Wimmer. My undergraduate education was at Carnegie Mellon University, where I earned a B.S. in Mathematical Sciences in May 2014.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I adopted my best friend Gracie in September 2024. She is an absolute bundle of energy and has never met a squirrel she gets along with. A relentless player and avid chewer of toys, she is known best for her endless enthusiasm for tug of war. The free time I used to have is now hers.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Nevertheless, when I have the time I greatly enjoy both solving and setting Sudoku variant puzzles. All of the puzzles I have created are featured under the Sudoku Puzzles tab on this site. I have also been playing the guitar for nearly 20 years. If I record any music in the future, it’ll be featured here as well!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am an avid reader and love visiting used bookstores to add to my collection. My favorite authors include Italo Calvino and Toni Morrison. I am also greatly into the science fiction and fantasy genres, with Steven Erikson’s Malazan Book of the Fallen <\/em>series being my favorite series in all of fiction. And if I am really looking to escape for a bit, I turn to video games. You’ll most commonly find me playing action RPGs such as Bloodborne and Elden Ring, though lately I have been consumed by Balatro.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
