About Me
-
My name is Alexis Newton, and I am a fourth-year PhD student at Emory University.
My advisor is David Zureick-Brown.
Generally, I am interested in Algebraic Geometry and Number Theory, with a preference for computational research. My CV can be found here.
I earned my MA in Mathematics at Wake Forest University under Jeremy Rouse in 2020, and I earned my BA in Mathematics and English Writing at High Point University in 2018.
Currently, I am a co-organizer of RANT - Emory's weekly graduate student seminar in algebra and number theory, with Santiago Arango-Pineros.

Teaching
-
For the Fall 2022 semester, I am teaching Math 111 (Calculus I) Section 04. Information for that course can be found on the class canvas site.
Writing
- I am a staff writer for the MAA Graduate Student Blog: Learning Through the Ranks. I was also a writer for the AMS Graduate Student Blog, which was retired in 2021. The following is a selection of my blog posts:
