I am currently teaching M 310T, a Freshman Research Initiative course about the mixing times of Markov chains. I'm also running a Putnam problem solving class.

Past Teaching

In Fall 2012, I taught Math 408K and Math 408N. I also ran a Putnam problem-solving seminar.

In Fall 2011, I taught Math 341 and Math 408N.

Research

My research interests lie in probability, in particular, in the area of Markov chain mixing times.
Here is a link to my thesis.

Papers and Preprints:

• Cutoff for the Transposition Walk on Permutations with One-Sided Restrictions arxiv
• A Coupling Argument for the Random Transposition Walk arxiv

Hobbies

I've recently finished a new translation of Roadside Picnic into English. Here's my page for the book.
