I am a number theorist with interests in continued fractions over number fields, especially
in connection with Fuchsian groups and/or to the dynamics
of translation surfaces and billiards.
In the late 1990s, I assisted engineers at OSU interested in
Elliptic curve encryption; this application
exploits the group structure of elliptic curves defined over finite fields.
A formative experience was teaching mathematics in a high school in Togo,
as a Peace Corps volunteer.
