About
I am an Assistant Professor in the Division of Applied Mathematics at Brown University. I work on numerical methods for partial differential equations (PDEs), scientific machine learning, and PDE-constrained optimization.
Now Hiring: Please see these two advertisements for available postdoctoral positions in my group.
Research Highlight: See this press release about my recent work on machine learning and black holes!
Short Bio: Before coming to Brown, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Center for Applied Scientific Computing at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Before that, I was a postdoc at the Institute for Computational and Experimental Research in Mathematics. Before that, I was a postdoc at the Chair of Numerical Analysis at the Technical University of Munich, where I was supervised by Barbara Wohlmuth. Before that, I was a Ph.D. student at the Oden Institute for Computational Engineering & Sciences, where I was supervised by Leszek Demkowicz.
