Academic Achievements
- Recipient of the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) in 2019 for developing new, impactful mathematical methods and computer algorithms; Won the Robert J. Melosh medal in 2008 for the best student paper in finite element analysis; Received two fellowships in 2007 that funded her graduate studies, the National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate (NDSEG) fellowship and the National Physical Science Consortium (NPSC) fellowship.
Research Experience
- Distinguished Member of Technical Staff in the Quantitative Modeling & Software Engineering Department at Sandia National Laboratories since May 2021; Principal Member of Technical Staff in the same department from September 2014 to May 2021; Senior Member of Technical Staff in the Computational Mathematics Department at Sandia in Albuquerque, NM, from October 2011 to September 2014. During her Ph.D. studies at Stanford, she worked part-time and during summers as a Graduate Technical Intern in Sandia Albuquerque’s Aerosciences Department.
Education
- Ph.D. in Computational and Mathematical Engineering (CME) from Stanford University in 2011, Advisor: Professor Charbel Farhat; Bachelor's and Master's degrees in pure mathematics from the University of Pennsylvania in 2006.
Background
- Research Interests: Numerical solution to PDEs, Enriched finite element methods, Stability and convergence properties of numerical methods, Reduced Order Modeling (ROM), Climate modeling, Multi-scale coupling methods, Performance portability of codes to next-generation architectures, Scientific computing/HPC, Software engineering.
Miscellany
- Got married and changed her last name from Kalashnikova to Tezaur in January 2015, hence has publications/presentations under both names.
