I am a graph theorist by training and a geometer by calling.  While the arc of my research began with the study of algebraically defined graphs, I now focus on geometry and visual proof.  I enjoy pursuing research with students, and showcasing our work in my classes to inspire other students to explore geometry, a rich subject that is not only alive and well, but ready and waiting for new contributions.
