There are many ways to reach me:
Office hours— If you're a current OSU student,
contact me via one of the channels below to see if a meeting makes sense.
If you're in one my classes, see the syllabus for my course office hours.
If you're not a OSU student, write me an email; we'll meet if appropriate. Email— I primarily use email to communicate with people I don't know and occasionally with collaborators.
If you're a student, a potential collaborator, or anyone else, write me an email to connect.
I typically check my email throughout the day during the work week, but may not respond until I have the bandwidth.
Slack— Slack is my preferred medium for collaboration with my students and other collaborators.
During the work day I treat Slack like instant messaging, and after hours I treat it like email.
Unfortunately, Oregon State stopped supporting Slack for everyone, but I maintain a workspace
for my research group.
Bluesky— I occasionally post on Bluesky, but actively review my timeline, and
I do respond to DMs and/or replies.
Mastadon— I only occasionally post on Mastadon, but actively review my timeline, and
I do respond to DMs and/or replies.
GitHub— I host a lot of my content and software projects on GitHub.
Feel free to submit issues and pull requests to my various repositories.
LinkedIn— I use LinkedIn to manage professional contacts, but not for much else.
I usually only accept connections from people I've met in real life and have
some professional relationship with (students, collaborators, professional colleagues).
Phone— Please don't call me on the phone.
It's never the right time, and I'm rarely in my office when you want to reach me.
Write me on one of the platforms above first and we can schedule a call if necessary.
