I am on leave for the 2008/2009 academic year. I am in Berkeley for the fall semester, and at MIT for the spring semester. The best way to contact me is by email:

I am an assistant professor here in the Department of Mathematics at Bucknell University in central Pennsylvania. In 2003, I received my Ph.D. from MIT, where Richard Stanley was my advisor. I was then a postdoc for two years with the Laboratoire de Combinatoire et d'Informatique Mathématique (LaCIM), located at the Université du Québec à Montréal, where my mentors were François Bergeron and Christophe Reutenauer. Immediately before starting at Bucknell, I was postdoc for one year at the Center for Mathematical Analysis, Geometry and Dynamical Systems, in the Department of Mathematics at the Instituto Superior Técnico in Lisbon.

My mathematical interests are in combinatorics, often of an algebraic or order-theoretic nature. Some of my recent work has had to do with P-partitions, edge-labellings of partially ordered sets, Schur-positivity, and relationships among skew Schur functions.
