In 2011, I joined a small startup called Rent the Runway. It was a radical depar-ture for me to go from working on large distributed systems at a big company to working with a tiny engineering team with a focus on delivering a great customer experience. I did it because I thought the business was […]

I was introduced to gardening at a very young age. My favorite picture is of me with a shovel and my Dad with a rake working in our garden. I was two years old. And, I am happy to say, gardening has stuck with me throughout my lifetime. I take such immense pleasure in planting […]

Over the last few years, there has been a significant increase in the number of students studying partial differential equations at the undergraduate level, and many of these students have come from areas other than mathematics, where intuition rather than mathematical rigor is emphasized. In writing Partial Dif­ferential Equations for Scientists and Engineers, l have […]
