Appearing on MoMath’s QED

I’m excited to be the invited guest for the upcoming episode of QED, the monthly series on math and math education hosted by the National Museum of Mathematics. I’ll be joining David Reimann, the 2024-25 Visiting Professor for Public Outreach at MoMath, and the topic will be infinity! I’m looking forward to chatting about this endlessly fascinating topic, from the perspective of both a mathematician and a teacher.

The event will be held online, and you can find out more and register here.

I’m thrilled to be a part of the upcoming Jaipur Literature Festival in New York City, where I’ll be in conversation with mathematician and novelist Manil Suri. Manil’s latest book, The Big Bang of Numbers, is a tour of mathematics from the ground up, allowing the reader to the experience of the power of mathematical creation as Manil constructs the universe using only math. It is a fun, friendly, and one-of-a-kind book.

In our JLF session A Universe Built on Math, Manil and I will be talking about math, writing, teaching, and everything in between. The talk is happening on September 13th at 4:30 pm at the Asia Society. All the details can be found here.
