We describe sufficient conditions which guarantee that a finite set of
mapping classes generate a right-angled Artin subgroup
quasi-isometrically embedded in the mapping class group. Moreover,
under these conditions, the orbit map to Teichmuller space is a
quasi-isometric embedding for both of the standard metrics. This is
joint work with Chris Leininger and Johanna Mangahas.
