Office: Lunt B22

I am a Boas Assistant Professor at Northwestern University and an NSF postdoctoral fellow. I received my Ph.D. from Stanford University in 2010. I was a student of Rafe Mazzeo and András Vasy.
I am interested in partial differential equations generally and geometric microlocal analysis more specifically.

Workshop on Evolution Equations

• I am co-organizing (with Igor Rodnianski, Gigliola Staffilani, and Jared Wunsch) a workshop at Northwestern University in May 2012. You can find the conference page here.

Papers

• A parametrix for the forward fundamental solution of the Klein-Gordon equation on asymptotically de Sitter spaces.
  Published in Journal of Functional Analysis 259:1673-1719 (2010).
  Also available from the ArXiv. (Last updated: August 10, 2010)
• A Strichartz estimate for de Sitter space.
  Published in the Proceedings of the Centre for Mathematics and its Applications ANU 44:97-104 (2010).
  Also available from the ArXiv. (Last updated: July 28, 2011)
• Strichartz estimates on asymptotically de Sitter spaces. Also available from the ArXiv. (Last updated: April 2, 2012)

Seminars

• Analysis seminar

Teaching

• I am not currently teaching.
• In Winter 2012 I taught Math 360 MENU Applied Analysis. This is the second quarter of a two-quarter sequence and introduces students to ODEs with MATLAB. In Autumn 2011 I taught the first quarter of the sequence.
• In Autumn 2010 I taught Math 220 and in Winter 2011 I taught Math 224. These are the first and second quarters of single-variable calculus. My students were great.
• At Stanford University, I was a teaching assistant for linear algebra and multivariable calculus, ordinary differential equations, and honors multivariable calculus. I was also the course assistant for graduate courses in functional analysis and harmonic analysis, and for advanced undergraduate courses in differential topology and Galois theory.

Conference Organization

• I was an organizer of the Microlocal Methods In Spectral and Scattering Theory workshop at Northwestern University in October 2011.
• I am an organizer of the Workshop on Evolution Equations at Northwestern University in May 2012.
