Professor Seaton joined the department in fall 2024 and teaches mathematics courses. He completed his Ph.D. in mathematics at the University of Colorado at Boulder and holds B.A. in mathematics from Kalamazoo College in Kalamazoo, Michigan. His research focuses on the geometry and topology of singular spaces, particularly orbifolds, singular symplectic quotients, and orbit spaces of Lie and topological groupoids. He enjoys mentoring undergraduate research and related projects in symplectic geometry, differential topology, computational invariant theory, and related areas. In his free time, he enjoys listening to and playing music, hiking, and chasing after his toddler.
