About me

I am a 3rd year PhD student in the mathematics department at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. I am currently working together with Kai Behrend. My research area is derived algebraic geometry, in particular derived moduli spaces.

My second home at UBC is the Graduate Student Society. I was appointed interims Vice-President for Finance December 2011.

My summer residence is the UBC Sailing Club.


Research

I passed my candidacy exam December 2011. My thesis proposal is about 2-categorial derived algebraic geometry. Currently I am working on relationships between derived schemes (Toën & Vezzosi), d-schemes (based on Joyce's d-manifolds) and dg-schemes (Kapranov & Kontsevich).


Teaching

I am teaching MATH 105 (Integral Calculus with Applications to Commerce and Social Sciences) in the winter term 2012.

Past teaching


Tutoring

Based on my past teaching assignments at UBC I am experienced in working together with undergraduate students to guide them successful through undergraduate mathematics courses. I am available for tutoring through the whole year and offer fair rates. For additional information and rates contact me via email.
