CV and Research:
I'm interested in enumerative combinatorics and the combinatorics of
Coxeter groups. Some of the projects I've been working on recently
are (1) counting lattice paths by area, (2) applying an inversion theorem
to count various types of labeled trees, and (3) counting Coxeter group
elements by their absolute length.
