Research
My primary area of research is in the area of several complex variables with some focus on complex analytic geometry. The problems I study have readily led me into other areas, including partial differential equations, algebraic geometry, linear algebra, and even some combinatorics. In particular, much of my research has sprung from a number of questions related to boundaries of holomorphic chains and analytic varieties.
