I am a computational mathematician at Sandia National Laboratories. My research interests include numerical analysis, applied mathematics and computational science, with particular focus on
-
-Theoretical and numerical investigations of solutions to Stochastic PDEs (SPDEs)
-
-Both Verification and Validation (V&V) and Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) in the realm of both abstract mathematical theory and numerical implementation and analysis.
-
-High-dimensional interpolation/integration when applied to both deterministic and stochastic problems
-
-Stochastic reduced-order models, stochastic optimal control and parameter identification for nonlinear SPDEs
From June 2007 to present I am the currently the John von Neumann Fellow at Sandia National Laboratories, working in the Optimization and Uncertainty Quantification Department. This prestigious fellowship is supported by the Applied Mathematics Research Program at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Advanced Scientific Computing and Research.

From February 2007 until June 2007 I was a postdoc at the School of Computational Science, Florida State University, under the direction of Prof. Max Gunzburger.
From September 2003 to February 2007 I was a Ph.D. student in Applied and Computational Mathematics at the same institution and department and also under Max’ direction. During this period, I interacting very frequently with an excellent Numerical Analyst, Dr. John Burkardt, who is now a researcher at the Interdisciplinary Center for Applied Mathetmatics (ICAM) at Virginia Tech.
From September 2001 to September 2003 I was a M.S. student in Applied Mathematics at McMaster University, under the direction of Prof. Dimitry Pelinovsky and Prof. Walter Craig.
From September 1997 to September 2001 I was a B.S. student in Pure Mathematics at the same institution and department.
