"Words are magic."
- Zufa Cenva



I've always been curious and excited about the way things work. My appetite for understanding about statistical, social and philosophical problems keeps me open and ever-willing to discuss new ideas. At the heart of it all is communication. The nuances of being able to explain, describe, relate, listen, interpret and internalize the written and spoken word well are worth aspiring to. My undergraduate, real analysis teacher ended every homework assignment with the following suggestion: Writing mathematics is a craft; aim to hone it. The publications below contain both research-based articles and more expository type pieces.
