About Me
I am an Assistant Adjunct Professor for the Program in Computing at UCLA Department of Mathematics working with Professor Andrea Bertozzi.
I completed my Ph.D. in Mathematics at Duke University under the guidance of Professor Thomas P. Witelski.
I work on nonlinear partial differential equations, scientific computing, and data-driven mathematical modeling.
Here is my complete CV.
