My research interests lie in the intersection of biology, computing, and mathematics, focusing on tree structures used to model evolutionary histories, binary search trees, and ways to compare and visualize these structures. See my research page for recent publications and grant funding.
I was the interim chair of computer science at Hunter College for Spring 2021 (departmental questions should be directed to the regular chair: Dr. William Sakas). Additional service focuses on making computational and mathematical concepts more accessible. My recent teaching echos the same theme.
