I encourage you to get in touch with me about any aspect of this course, or just to chat (for example, I am more than happy to talk with you about what you will do after HMC). In general email is the best way to reach me, and I will do my best to respond as quickly as I can. However, note that unlike some other professors, I do tend to sleep at night. :)
