About Me

My research interests include molecular simulation, statistical and quantum mechanics, scientific machine learning, material design and development, and molecular discovery. I am a postdoctoral scholar in the labs of Dr. Andrew Ferguson and Dr. Junhong Chen at the Pritkzer School of Molecular Engineering at the Unviersity of Chicago. I received my Ph.D. in Computation Modeling and Simulation from the University of Pittsburgh under the mentorship of Dr. J. Karl Johnson.
