I'm a graduate student in pure mathematics at the University of New Hampshire. My interests are a bit too diverse for my own good, but seem to be settling down; my major interests include foundations (particularly approached through categorical model theory) and algebraic topology. I like to do things categorically when I can get away with it.

My interest here is mostly in hacking on the math books, and getting them to the point where I can in good conscience suggest them in place of traditional textbooks for the courses I teach.
