I'm a mathematician working primarily on topological
data analysis (TDA). My research focuses on the
theoretical foundations of TDA, and also on the computational and applied aspects of the subject.
A lot of my work is on
is practical tool

homology, designed by Matthew Wright and me, and developed by
