While I look forward to meeting you, I kindly request that you write to me before visiting my office. Due to my teaching schedule, research commitments, and other academic responsibilities, it may not always be possible to accommodate unscheduled visits. My days are often filled with classes, meetings, and research activities, making it challenging to manage drop-in visits. Scheduling a time in advance ensures that I can give you my full attention and provide the assistance or discussion you need.
