Personal


About Me:

I grew up in the small Central New York town of Weedsport, about 20 miles west of Syracuse. Math was always my favorite subject in school, but I never dreamed of becoming a mathematician. I dreamed of playing Major League Baseball, or politicking in Washington, DC. I'm sure I made the right decision.

I am vegan, and have been since 2007. In fact, my entire immediate family are either vegan (5) or vegetarian (2). My brother owns two vegan cafes in Syracuse, NY, and my sister aspires to open a vegan bakery. It probably goes without saying that our extended family think we are crazy hippies.

Interests:

Outside of mathematics, I have two sports obsessions:

The Arsenal, and
'Cuse hoops.

I read a lot, don't watch much TV, and have an eclectic love of music (although I have no musical talents whatsoever).
