Background
- Research interests lie in understanding how materials and biological systems undergo reactivity or respond to external perturbations. The goal is to understand the behavior of these systems across multiple time and length scales, and how microscopic interactions may lead to phenomena at the mesoscale. Research is at the intersection of quantum chemistry, statistical mechanics, continuum mechanics, and data science.
Miscellany
- Outside of science, enjoys long walks, visiting coffee shops, talking with friends, and cooking
