About Me
I am a 2nd-year master's student in applied mathematics at the University of Missouri-Columbia where I am advised by Dr. Sam Walsh. I enjoy running, reading, and restoring my old Honda. I am currently applying to various PhD programs in applied mathematics.
Research Interests
- Modeling: numerical methods, uncertainty analysis
- PDEs: computational fluid dynamics
- Applications: control, optimization
