Tuesdays and Thursdays, 2:30 to 3:45 Sennott Square, Room 5505
210 South Bouquet Street
Pittsburgh, PA

My office hours are on my contact page.

It's best to setup an appointment with me before you come to see me during my office hours so that you are guaranteed to be able to talk with me. Of course, you are also free to just walk in, but an appointment guarantees that part of your time won't be spent waiting for me to finish helping another student.

This schedule is not complete and will be updated as the semester progresses. Class meets every Tuesday and Thursday in the Fall semester unless otherwise noted.
