Welcome!

I am a PhD student in the Mathematics Dept. at the University of California, Los Angeles. I am advised by Chris Anderson. My main research interests are in digital signal processing and parallel numerical methods- particularly stream processing methods for DSP. In addition to my dissertation research Ive spent the past two summers doing research at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, mainly on wavelets and implementing operator compression algorithms on accelerator hardware. I maintain a blog focused on these and related topics here.
