Hello! I am a postdoctoral associate in the Department of Mathematics at Virginia Tech, working with Prof. Traian Iliescu. I earned my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2023, where I was advised by Prof. Paul Fischer. You can find more about me here.

My research focuses on the developement of data-driven reduced-order modeling for turbulent flows. In particular, I am working on modeling–constructing accurate and efficient data-driven ROMs, numerical analysis–proving fundamental mathematical properties, e.g., stability, consistency, convergence and parameter scalings, and numerical simulation–testing the new data-driven ROMs in the simulation of turbulent flows in engineering.
