His research is in the fields of complex analysis in several variables, harmonic analysis, and operator theory. He is particularly interested in the Bergman kernel, the Bergman projection, and mapping properties and weighted inequalities of operators in several complex variables. His teaching interests include foundational and advanced mathematics courses in pure math.
