picture of me
I am currently a postdoc at the University of Montreal.  I received my Ph.D. from the University of British Columbia in 2008. 
I was an NSF postdoc at the University of Illinois from 2008-2011.  Please feel free to contact me with any questions. 

Research:

My research area is analytic number theory and classical analysis.  I am interested in problems relating to Mahler measures,
hypergeometric functions, the Bloch-Beilinson conjectures, and lattice sums.
