I'm currently a graduate student in the Math Department. My primary interest is algebra, particularly group theory and ring theory. Prior to joining the department, I earned an M.S. in Computer Science here at Wisconsin, a B.A. in Mathematics from the University of San Diego, and an A.B in Religious Studies from the University of California at Davis.
I'm currently a TA for Math 112. In the Computer Science department, I taught CS 302, the introductory program course, and I was a TA for CS 536, a course in compiler design. I also spent a year as an NSF Graduate Teaching Fellow with the K-Through-Infinity Program. I am also available for private tutoring.
I also work for the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Lately, I've been working on the gfortran compiler. I added support for Cray Pointers to gfortran (as of GCC 4.1), and I am currently working on other gfortran-related projects. For more information, see http://gcc.gnu.org.
