I
am an associate professor in the Department
of Mathematical Sciences at the University
of Nevada Las Vegas. My research is in number theory,
arithmetic
geometry, and algebraic geometry. I earned my Ph.D. from Brown
University
where I studied under Joseph H. Silverman. Before coming to UNLV,
I worked as a Bing Instructor at the University of Texas at Austin
(1991
-- 1994), and as an assistant professor at the University of Waterloo
in
Waterloo, Canada (1994 -- 1997).
I am the author of a book on geometry titled A Survey of Classical and Modern Geometries. I have also been involved with various mathematical contests. I was the leader for the Canadian IMO team in 2002, the deputy leader in 1999, and a leader observer in 1998. Locally, I have helped to run the UNLV Prize Mathematics Contest, and to make sure our University competes in the Putnam competition.
