Personal

While I value my time with my students and my research, my best times are spent with my wife and two children in our home in Ohio walking in the woods, going to the zoo, or just hanging around the house.

I also love baking! Each week for our family's Shabbat celebrations, I bake our challah, which we then share with friends and family. I also enjoy baking tarts and pies, though I'm still a novice at the latter.

I've recently begun to study Yiddish, and have enjoyed becoming a student in a formal sense again, and have designs on eventually combining my knowledge of the language with my studies involving NLP and crime.
