I began working at Maplesoft after receiving my Ph.D. in Pure Mathematics from the University of Waterloo in 1995. My research then focused on combinatorial group theory (particularly, on finiteness properties of infinite discrete groups). I have been working in the Math Group since January 1997, where I have been involved in many diverse projects over the years.

The Magma package in Maple 15 includes the command IsSubMagma.  This tests whether a specified subset of a magma is closed under the binary operation that defines the magma.  For example, consider the following Cayley table for a group of order four.
