Research Focus

Geometric group theory, geometric topology

I study infinite discrete groups by studying their actions on metric spaces, especially negatively curved (hyperbolic) metric spaces. The topology and geometry of 3-manifolds also figures heavily in my work, both directly and as inspiration.
