I am a mathematics professor at the University of Winnipeg. I am passionate about teaching and I am a research mathematician.  I am also an active advocate for strong math education for Canadian children. I volunteer in many different capacities to help children improve their math skills. I run a non-profit organization, Archimedes Math Schools, devoted to helping kids with math.  Previously, I co-founded a math advocacy group, WISE Math. I have given around 200 media interviews on math education and written numerous articles for the public. In 2021, I was selected as a 3M National Teaching Fellow.  My mathematics research interests include algebraic combinatorics and combinatorial representation theory. I was Chair of the Department of Mathematics & Statistics, University of Winnipeg, from 2017 to 2022.
