I am a fourth year PhD candidate in the Department of Mechanical and Civil Engineering at the California Institute of Technology, where I am advised by Professor Tim Colonius as a member of his Computational and Data-Driven Fluid Dynamics group. I am currently working on the Nonlinear One-Way Navier-Stokes (NOWNS) equations, a numerical tool for nonlinear hydrodynamic stability analysis that I am using to study laminar-turbulent transition in boundary-layer flows.

I am broadly interested in numerical methods and scientific computing for partial differential equations (PDEs). Prior to starting at Caltech, I earned my bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from the University of British Columbia. Later, I earned my master's degree at the University of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies (UTIAS) under the supervision of Professor Masayuki Yano, where I studied reduced-order modeling (ROM) methods and developed a projection-based model reduction formulation for parametrized time-dependent nonlinear PDEs.
