Jaclyn and I moved back to the States in 2011 and got married. We’re adjusting to life in Pittsburgh.

We wrote about our adventures and mishaps in Switzerland on SwissWatching. You can see pictures of Switzerland and our travels on Flickr. Yes, I do speak French, in a functional and very non-academic sort of way.

In 2010, we got a Swiss dog from a farm near Neuchatel. Ruben is a coton de tuléar:

My dad is a civil-rights lawyer in Chicago (online at www.kenlaw.com). My mom is a professor of psychology at Argosy University, Chicago, and has a private practice in Evanston (online at the Center for Multimodal Treatment). While all three of us Flaxman children participated in the Hampshire College Summer Studies in Mathematics during high school and studied mathematics as undergraduates, we’ve all taken (slightly) different paths since then. My brother Abraham (Abie) is a computer scientist at the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington (his website). My brother Joel is a lawyer who works as a law clerk for a federal judge in Chicago.

At Evanston Township High School I took Chem/Phys (if you browse that page carefully, you might find my Intel paper), played in the band, and was on the math team.

In college, I was on the board of the Harvard College Democrats and Harvard Hillel and I chaired the Harvard College Progressive Jewish Alliance. I played clarinet in RecKlez, the Harvard Klezmer Band. RecKlez’s 2008 CD, Sketches of Freylekhland is online:
