I'm currently an AARMS postdoc at Dalhousie University working on, for lack of a better term, "discrete science".

During my PhD candidature, I studied the number of Latin squares/rectangles, and symmetries of Latin squares. Recently I have been expanding my interests into computer science and computational biology. One recent focal point is network motifs.

I am particularly fond of computational discrete mathematics. I often use:

  • GAP (computer algebra system),
  • R (for statistical computing),
  • Prover9 (automated theorem prover),
  • C or C++ (if speed is required).

Please visit my website for more info (e.g. a list of publications).
