I am a research postdoc in Mathematics at Dartmouth College working with Dimitris Giannakis.

My current work focuses on topics related to the dynamical closure, pattern extraction and forecasting of spatiotemporal dynamics, employing data based kernel methods and the operator theoretic, statistical description of dynamical systems.

I am currently looking for postdoc or tenure track positions starting in the summer or fall 2027.

New preprint on an accelerated decomposition method for bistochastic kernel matrices.
New paper on dynamical closure published in the Journal of Computational Physics.
Two new preprints on hyper-reduction methods for finite element simulations.
I gave a seminar talk at Tufts Mathematics.
I gave a talk in the SIAM UQ26 conference.
I gave a talk in the APS DPP 2025 conference.
I gave a seminar talk at Caltech CMS.
I gave a talk in the SIAM DS25 conference.
