About me

I'm currently an Assistant Professor in the physics department at the University of Texas at El Paso. My expertise is in mathematical modeling and scientific computing in the field of condensed matter physics with a particular interest in topological quantum materials, nano-sensing, and quantum computing. During my PhD and Truman fellowship at Sandia National Laboratories, I develop models to describe electronic transport properties of topological, low-dimensional, and superconducting materials using numerical and analytic techniques. Previously, I performed numerical studies of material responses to various fields to better understand the feasibility of a environmentally-conscience proposal to replace conventional refrigeration that utilizes toxic substances-- solid-state refrigeration-- using caloric effects.
