Contact Information

Because my job at the University of Washington makes me a government employee, I try to follow state rules to use my UW email and mailing address for, but only for, correspondence related to my work as a UW faculty member (e.g., teaching and UW-supported research). Please don't just email both of my email addresses in an attempt to get my attention. If you think I have missed your message, go ahead and email me again. I miss things sometimes and I don't mind reminders.

My office at UW is in the Community Data Science Lab in the Communications (CMU) building at the University of Washington in room CMU 306:

Communicating Securely

Whenever possible, I recommend that everyone communicating with me use encryption for authentication and to ensure that our conversations stay between us. For email, I use the GNU Privacy Guard (GPG).
