Current research interests

I make use of tools from probability theory, the theory of partial differential equations, and numerical analysis, to analyze interesting physical phenomena and to design, analyze, and apply new computational techniques to study challenging problems arising in the physical sciences and engineering. My current application areas of interest include the dynamics of crystal surfaces, weather prediction, and problems in computational statistical mechanics.

Recent History

I am currently an assistant professor in the mathematics department at the University of Chicago. Previously, as a Courant Instructor at NYU, I collaborated with Jonathan Goodman, Bob Kohn, and Eric Vanden-Eijnden. Before moving to New York I was a PhD student of Alexandre Chorin in the Department of Mathematics at the University of California at Berkeley.
