I am an Assistant Professor at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego. My research focuses on application of computational fluid dynamics to geoscience problems and volcanic hazards.
 | I started my graduate work using geodynamo simulations for my master’s thesis. I then wrote my Ph.D. thesis on the influence of supersonic flow and shock waves on volcanic plumes. As a postdoc, I’ve continued research on the high-speed flow dynamics of volcanic jets, including volcanic vent formation and acoustic signal generation. I am also currently working toward using computational models to study coupled Fluid-Structure Interaction problems in geosciences. Learn more about my research. |
