I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Pure Mathematics at the University of Waterloo. My area of research is differential geometry and geometric analysis. Specifically, I work on manifolds with G₂ or Spin(7) structures. This includes: the construction of torsion-free compact examples; the study of their moduli spaces and the extra geometric structures on such moduli spaces; conical singularities of such manifolds; calibrated submanifolds; Donaldson-Thomas connections in G₂ and Spin(7) geometry; and geometric evolution equations in the context of special holonomy and calibrations.

I am available to advise students at the PhD, Master's, and undergraduate levels. If you are a student interested in differential geometry, contact me for more information. (Also see the 'Training' link at the left.)
