Teaching: (Fall 2018)

• MATH 172, (Calculus), meeting TR 11:10-12:25 in CHEM 2122.
• MATH 221, (Several Variable Calculus), meeting in BLOC 161 at MWF 11:30-12:20 (Sec. 503) and MWF 1:50-2:40 (Sec. 504).
• Office hours (starting Sept. 3) M, 8-9, W 9-10, R 9-10, and by appointment.

My research is mostly on operator algebras with an emphasis on free probability theory and its applications to operator algebras.
