Academic Achievements
  • Paper on approximation theory for measure transport algorithms accepted in AMS: Mathematics of Computations; gave a joint keynote talk at CIRM-Marseille Digital Twins for Inverse Problems Workshop; delivered the USNCCM Large-Scale TTA early-career colloquium on dimension reduction methods for probabilistic modeling.
Research Experience
  • Since Fall 2025, Assistant Professor at the University of Toronto and Faculty Affiliate at the Vector Institute; previously a von Kármán instructor at Caltech in Computing + Mathematical Sciences, hosted by Andrew Stuart and Houman Owhadi; also a Postdoctoral Scientist at Amazon Search.
Education
  • PhD: Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Computational Science and Engineering, advised by Youssef Marzouk; BASc: University of Toronto in Engineering Science.
Background
  • Research interests include probabilistic modeling and inference for problems in science and engineering. Recently, he has been developing and analyzing generative models based on computational measure transport.
