Current research
My research is on non-perturbative aspects of Quantum Field Theory (QFT), with an emphasis on supersymmetric gauge theories. I have worked extensively on supersymmetric localization, and co-authored influential early papers on the subject. Recently, I have been focusing on studying defect operators in gauge theory.

Teaching
I am interested in teaching methods that provide alternatives to frontal instruction such as peer instruction and active learning.
