Argonne National Laboratory,
Mathematics and Computer Science Division

About Me:

I am currently a Postdoc @ Argonne.

Before that, I completed my PhD in Computer Science @ Virginia Tech.

I am passionate about open source software! I develop numerical software and algorithms at the interface of numerical optimization, approximation theory, and machine learning. View my publications on Google Scholar, and check out some of my software below or on GitHub.

Don't hesitate to reach out or connect at an upcoming event!
