Descriptions of Research Interests
Arrangement Theory
Arrangement theory is a branch of discrete geometry which studies collections of geometric objects and their properties. My research lies in the area of complex hyperplane arrangements, finite collections of hyperplanes in the complex projective plane. More specifically, I study configurations of points and lines which satisfy certain intersection properties called nets and multinets. These configurations play an important role in the study of resonance varieties of complex hyperplane arrangement complements.

Geometric Number Theory
Geometric constructions give rise to many interesting sequences. More specifically, two colleagues and I have been studying sequences related to when the sum of triangular numbers is again a triangular number.
Sports Analytics
Sports analytics has been also an area of interest for me. Some colleagues at the University of North Dakota and I are investigating race data to better understand running events.
