Academic Achievements
  • Received support from the Kortschak Scholarship, PIMCO Fellowship, Amazon AI4Science Fellowship, Nvidia Fellowship, and MIT Novo Nordisk AI Fellowship.
Research Experience
  • Postdoctoral Associate at MIT, hosted by Kaiming He; had three summer internships at Nvidia; will join NYU as an Assistant Professor of Mathematics and Data Science in Fall 2026.
Education
  • Ph.D. in Computing and Mathematical Sciences from Caltech (2019-2025), mentored by Anima Anandkumar and Andrew Stuart; B.S. from Washington University in St. Louis (2015-2019) with majors in Computer Science and Mathematics, minor in Jazz.
Background
  • Research interests include developing machine learning methods for scientific computing and discovery; focuses on neural operators for learning solution operators in partial differential equations, particularly in fluid mechanics and earth science. Long-term goal is to advance solutions for chaotic behaviors and complex geometries in physical simulations.
Miscellany
  • Interested in jazz music; personal website powered by Jekyll with al-folio theme, hosted on GitHub Pages.
