Welcome

portrait

I am a research associate at the Texas Advanced Computing Center at the University of Texas. My current research focus is applying mathematical abstractions to scientific software in order to automate the generation and optimization of simulations.

Previously as a postdoctoral fellow I worked on Ignition, a collection of numerical code generators, with the FLAME group for applications to sparse iterative solvers and finite element algorithms.

As a graduate student, I worked on automation techniques for computational fluid dynamics. Specifically, I used the FEniCS project tools to automate the discretization and stabilization of a variety of non-Newtonian fluid models. I maintain the code Rheagen which implements these models.
