My primary research areas are in geometric group theory and low-dimensional topology.
Specialties: Mapping class groups, relatively hyperbolic groups, hierarchical hyperbolicity, 3-manifold groups, Teichmuller theory, Artin groups, asymptotic geometry, quasi-isometric rigidity. I also am interested in probabilistic combinatorics.

My papers are available for download via the ArXiv and are also available below as PDF files.
