I am an Associate Professor in the mathematics department at UCLA.
My mathematical interests include gauge theory, low-dimensional topology, and symplectic geometry.
This is my CV in Postscript and PDF.

I am on the Editorial Board of Selecta Mathematica, and I encourage you to contribute to our journal.
If you want to submit a paper, please follow these instructions.
