|Research|

My main area of study is Number Theory. I am particularly interested in units and class groups of number fields; extensions of global fields with restricted ramification; the arithmetic of elliptic curves; and special values of L-functions. For preprints, curriculum vitae, etc. please visit my Research Page.

I currently serve on the editorial board of the following publications:

Annales des Sciences Mathématiques du Québec.
Publications Mathématiques de Besançon: Algèbre et Théorie des Nombres

I serve as Associate Head for the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, and as its liaison to the School of Education. I also serve on the University's General Education Council.

I am a member of the Leverett School Committee, the Amherst Regional Middle School Council, and of the Amherst-Pelham Superintendent Advisory Council. I represented the Massachusetts Association of School Committees on the Special Commission for the Study of School District Collaboration and Regionalization.
