My General Research Interests

My field of research is enumerative and algebraic combinatorics, with interests in rook theory, pattern avoidance, permutation statistics, Stirling numbers, generating functions, and partition theory.

My Ph.D. was conferrred on June 18th, 2006 from the University of California, San Diego.

Thesis: A General Rook Model For Product Formulas & Poly-Stirling Numbers

Thesis Advisor: Dr. Jeff Remmel , UC, San Diego
