About me

As of June 2023, I'm a Flatiron Research Fellow in the Center for Computational Mathematics at the Flatiron Institute, working with the Structural and Molecular Biophysics Group led by Pilar Cossio and Sonya Hanson. In Spring 2023 I completed my Ph.D. in applied mathematics at the University of Maryland, College Park, where I was co-advised by Maria Cameron and Pratyush Tiwary on research involving data-driven methods for the study of rare events in molecular dynamics. Most recently I've worked on uncertainty quantification and statistical inference for heterogenous cryo-EM data.
