About Me

I am currently a research associate at Michigan State University working with Guowei Wei . Prior to this, I held a postdoc position at the University of California, Los Angeles working with Shantanu Joshi. I finished my PhD at Florida State University under the supervision of Eric Klassen and Martin Bauer. My research background lies in differential geometry and in particular in its applications to shape and functional data analysis.

Research Interests

Differential Geometry, Shape Analysis, Numerical Analysis of PDEs, Global Analysis, Data Science, Geometric Statistics, Optimization
